Article was nominated within 7 days of passing GAR. Article is adequately sourced, neutral, and copyvio free. No concerning pings on Earwigs. Hooks are cited, short enough for DYK, and interesting; I personally think ALT1 is the best of the given options. Nominator is QPQ exempt. Morgan695 (talk) 01:49, 9 April 2025 (UTC)
