Article is new enough (created 21 March) and long enough (1,550 characters of prose).
Prose is neutral and contains sufficient sourcing. Earwig returns no copyvio concerns.
I don't find ALT0 to be particularly interesting, but I think ALT1 is hooky enough. It is of appropriate length, meets the formatting guidelines, and is sourced.
No QPQ requirement, as this is the nominator's first time at DYK.
ALT1 is good to go. Armadillo pteryx 03:20, 1 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
