Improved to Good Article status by REDMAN 2019 (talk). Self-nominated at 10:42, 20 January 2021 (UTC).
- This article is a newly promoted GA and meets the newness and length criteria. The ALT0 hook facts are cited inline and that hook is fine, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. I cannot see which cited sentence backs up ALT1, and the word "Blackbird" is not used on the page. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:38, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
