5x expanded by Jon698 (talk). Self-nominated at 04:49, 24 May 2020 (UTC).
New enough (expansion mainly happened on the 23rd), long enough (5x expanded from 1948 to 9872), neutral, cites sources, passes Earwig and eye tests for copyvios. Hooks are all short enough, cited, and the main and ALT 1 are both interesting enough. ALT2 is a gotcha and isn't as good as the other two, so I've struck it. QPQ is present. No image.
