This article is new enough and long enough. The image is in the public domain, the hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright or plagiarism issues. @Coffeeandcrumbs: A QPQ needs to be done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:42, 29 October 2019 (UTC)
- @Cwmhiraeth: done. --- Coffeeandcrumbs 07:14, 29 October 2019 (UTC)
