5x expanded by Jamesallain85 (talk), Cullen328 (talk), and Andrew Davidson (talk). Nominated by Andrew Davidson (talk) at 12:27, 26 June 2021 (UTC).
A solid article and an acceptable expansion, at 166 B/30 words in the revision when the PROD was restored and 4797 B/807 words in the revision when the article was nominated for DYK three days later. QPQ is done (quite thoroughly!). Hook is strong (I've made a minor grammatical tweak) and verifiable. Image is PD as work of the US federal government. Holding this for a few days while the AfD finishes just as a precautionary measure. Vaticidalprophet 00:06, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
Article has been kept as expected, so approving. Vaticidalprophet 17:09, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
