Hi Epicgenius, review follows: article created 14 September; article exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I can't access all of the sources but a spotcheck on some of the accessible ones showed no issues with overly close paraphrasing; hooks are OK, I think my preference is for ALT0; I can only verify ALT0 and ALT2 but happy to AGF on ALT1; hook facts are all mentioned in the article; image is freely licensed and works OK at this scale; a QPQ has been carried out. No issues here - Dumelow (talk) 15:23, 15 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
