| General: Article is new enough and long enough |

| QPQ: Done. |
Overall: 
Article is long enough and sourced, ALT0 is cited and interesting, QPQ is done. In my opinion, ALT1 should not be used because it isn't interesting or hooky enough and probably won't interest a general audience. Note: This is my first review, second opinions are welcome. —Danre98(talk^contribs) 20:55, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
- Promoter's comment to @Danre98: Hi there! Nice job on your first review! Pretty much everything checks out, I agree with your assessment of the hooks. One small thing—for the sourcing requirement, it's generally better if direct quotes are sourced at the end of the sentence. I've copied those over. Thanks for your enthusiasm for DYK! Hope you stick around :)
