5x expanded by Piotrus (talk). Self-nominated at 09:19, 20 August 2021 (UTC).
- I see that since this article was nominated, there has been a lot of changes/removals of examples in the article by another editor. I will be reviewing the current version as it stands today, which is Special:Permalink/1040455852, making no judgement on whether it was correct or incorrect for some content to have been removed
The article has been 5x expanded (it was 548 characters before: Special:Permalink/1036127229, and is currently 7126 characters), has been nominated in time (expansion started 19 August, nominated 20 August), and the article looks to be within policy. It's clearly a notable topic, as it is covered in many sources. AGF on a couple of paywalled sources- Hooks are short enough, interesting, in the article (all facts of ALT1 are covered in different places in the article), and well cited. I prefer ALT0, as it's more concise
- QPQ done
Overall, this nomination passes, with AGF on a couple of paywalled sources. Joseph2302 (talk) 15:46, 26 August 2021 (UTC)
