Hi 4meter4, review follows: article created 13 July; article exceeds minimum length and is well written; article cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I don't have access to all of the sources but found no issue with overly close paraphrasing from a spotcheck on the ones I could; hook is interesting, mentioned in the article and checks out to the source cited; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks good to me, an excellent new article - Dumelow (talk) 06:27, 15 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
