  • Hi Serial Number 54129, review follows: article created 13 February; article is of good length; article is well written (perhaps a bit heavy in quotations but they are all correctly attributed) and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; no copyright violations found in a spot check of the accessible sources; hook is definitely interesting, it is supported in the article and by the sources cited; QPQ has been carried out - Dumelow (talk) 08:31, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
