New enough and long enough. Fewer than five DYK credits; no QPQ necessary. Earwig flags 32.7% to the Australian Dictionary of Biography, which is a lot, but a lot of it consists of unavoidable proper nouns and simple but long formulations, e.g. "entered the Order of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary" or "and a jury of four". Both citations are included, text and fact, in the article, and the hooks are fascinating and will attract a lot of readers! I don't see any other issues.
