• Article was created in draft space and moved to mainspace. I think the timing should be acceptable. It's long enough, appears to be neutrally written, and has citations throughout. The proposed hooks are interesting and cited inline. Copyright violation appears unlikely. QPQ is provided. I made one correction regarding MOS:SURVIVEDBY. – Muboshgu (talk) 00:27, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
