Improved to Good Article status by David Eppstein (talk). Self-nominated at 18:14, 18 April 2022 (UTC).
- Article has achieved Good Article status. No issues of copyvio or plagiarism. All sources appear reliable. QPQ is done. Hooks are interesting and sourced. Are there any other images you would like to include in the nomination? There are some cool ones in commons, but I guess new hooks would have to be created to use some of them.

- I added three more for some of the other hooks. Not sure the mosaic one works at DYK thumbnail size though. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:02, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
