Overall:

Article new enough and long enough. Hook is sourced to a book, and seems reliable. No recent edit wars, so article is stable. Hook is neutral (and quite interesting, if I may add). No picture is used, no plagiarism from what Earwig found, two QPQs are done. Easy pass, good job! — Preceding unsigned comment added by EF5 (talk • contribs) 20:00, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
