, QPQ is done, hook is interesting and well phrased, article is well referenced, neutral, long enough, new enough, decently written though I found and corrected quite a few spelling errors, so you may wish to go through again and check. I've spotchecked some of the sourcing and it lines up + shows no indication of copyvio. AGF on paywalled source for hook. Eddie891 Talk Work 16:05, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
