Hi Bloom6132, review follows: article more than 5x expanded from 20 October; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I didn't pick up any overly close paraphrasing from the sources; hook facts are interesting, mentioned in the article and check out to source cited; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks fine to me - Dumelow (talk) 09:10, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
