5x expanded by Epicgenius (talk). Self-nominated at 17:35, 4 February 2020 (UTC).[reply]

  • This impressive five-fold expansion is new enough and long enough. The hook facts for ALT3 are cited inline, the image is appropriately licensed, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. I have not checked the other hooks because they seemed less interesting to a general audience. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:57, 17 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Opening statement[edit]

In reviews I conduct, I may make small copyedits. These will only be limited to spelling and punctuation (removal of double spaces and such). I will only make substantive edits that change the flow and structure of the prose if I previously suggested and it is necessary. For replying to Reviewer comment, please use  Done,  Fixed, plus Added,  Not done,  Doing..., or minus Removed, followed by any comment you'd like to make. I will be crossing out my comments as they are redressed, and only mine. A detailed, section-by-section review will follow. —♠Vami_IV†♠ 09:37, 5 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
