Newly created. Only content issue is the "Further examination" section, which has a few of its paragraphs uncited. Also only ALT0 and ALT2 are eligable, as ALT1 is over the 200 character limit (245). QPQ not needed. ~StyyxTalk? 13:22, 23 October 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Styyx, thanks for your review. I've clarified that the source for that entire section is page 297 of Elibal (1973). I've also reduced the word count for ALT1. Also added an ALT1.1 that is even shorter.
Approve all hooks, though ALT0 and ALT1.1 seem the most interesting to me. ~StyyxTalk? 13:42, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
