Improved to Good Article status by Truflip99 (talk). Self-nominated at 17:20, 14 May 2020 (UTC).

  • Hook is cited to a reliable source and supported by source, hook is short enough and interesting to a broad audience. Nominator is exempt from QPQ requirement. Image is free (CC by SA 3.0) and used in the article. Article was promoted to GA status recently enough and is policy compliant. Article is long enough by far. Hog Farm (talk) 04:19, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
