Improved to Good Article status by Kew Gardens 613 (talk). Nominated by Epicgenius (talk) at 13:44, 5 May 2020 (UTC).
- on ALT0 (couldn't access), on ALT1 and ALT2. Article was promoted to GA status within 7 days of nomination, article is long enough and compliant with policy. Hooks are within the length guidelines, interesting, and supported by the citations. No preference on which hook used. Hog Farm (talk) 19:17, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
