  • Approving ALT1. Article is long enough and 5x expanded on the day of DYK submission. Article is presentable, well-sourced, and copyvio-free. QPQ done. Both hooks are interesting and sourced; however, I feel ALT0 is a little verbose and could be worded in a way that flowed better. Other than that, all good to go. Thank you for the nomination SL93!
