  • Very interesting article! The hook, date and length look good, and offline sources are accepted in good faith. This is almost ready, but two quick things: 1) You still need to review another DYK, and 2) citation #6 is currently showing an error with the data field. Can you fix that? — Hunter Kahn 03:17, 15 February 2020 (UTC)
  • Thanks! I fixed it. I want to propose ALT1 now, which I think to be more accurate. --Z 17:56, 15 February 2020 (UTC)
