  • Moved to mainspace on 8 March; length checks out. Hook is interesting and under 200 characters; I have corrected a minor grammatical point. Article is adequately referenced to reliable sources. No copyright problems noted with those (few) online English-language sources I could access. AGFing on hook fact, which requires JSTOR access & French.
