  •   Article expansion new enough and long enough. All paragraphs are cited, and all hooks are cited, with off line sources taken AGF. Article is neutrally written, and follows guidelines, with no policy or copyright issues identified. The image is clear in thumb form and main page appropriate. Good to go. --Kevmin § 03:22, 18 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
