Overall: Krakkos and Bait30, I’ve completed this review and I find that this article and both hooks meet or exceed all DYK criteria. The article became a GA on 19 October, so it is new enough. It is well sourced with verifiable references and plagiarism-free. The image of Lehmann in the article is Fair Use with an appropriate justification. The content of both hooks is sourced and verifiable, and they are both an appropriate length; however, I prefer the first hook over ALT1. West Virginian (talk)21:40, 25 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
