: Article is new and is more than 1500 characters (~2500). The article is neutral, every paragraph has multiple reliable citations, and there are no copyright issues. The first hook fits the format, is cited and neutral. It's also interesting. QPQ is done and there is no image needed. Ready for DYK. Tkbrett (✉)19:28, 19 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
