Comment: This is my first time nominating a DYK; any feedback or suggestions to either the nomination or the article are welcome!

Welcome to DYK! This is a new enough and long enough expansion, and you do not need a QPQ as this is your first nomination. Before I could really review the article, I noted that the writing (mostly translation from eswiki) needed a significant amount of improvement to be idiomatic and flow properly in English. (Ojalá que los cambios que acabo de hacer te ayuden para mejorar tu inglés escrito.) The hook fact is in the article with cited source that checks out ([1] is also used by the hook) and is interesting. This should be ready and is a good example of an article rescue from PROD.

Thank you very much for the feedback and with the help proofreading! I'll make sure to take a look at the reviewing guide for future nominations, as well as take further care with translation. --NoonIcarus (talk) 20:30, 22 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
