General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
Freely licensed: Used in article: Clear at 100px:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: I do not see any one proposition in the article explicitly stating the fact of the hook, but the article discusses different theories of how the road proceeded and are properly supported, so I think that satisfies the 'hook cited' requirement. Ergo Sum 06:06, 13 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
