  • New article that was moved to mainspace on 2 February 2021 is 2,772 characters and nominated on the same day. No copyvios detected [1] and duplication detector [2][3][4] reveal no close paraphrasing issues (AGF books and offline refs which can't go through Dup detector). Article are well-sourced. Hook is 132 characters long (under 200 character max.) and is interesting. Ref 2 (verifying the hook) is a reliable source. QPQ done. Looks good to go! —Bloom6132 (talk) 03:40, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
