Article new and long enough. Tone appears neutral enough to not be promotional. Hook facts are interesting, cited inline, and verified in source. Prefer ALT0 personally but ALT1 is fine too. Copyvio indicates no issues and QPQ is not yet required. @ECTran71: I would prefer the lead section be elongated somewhat from its current single-sentence form but that doesn't block this nom. Good to go. Juxlos (talk) 23:51, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
