Article is new enough, long enough, and within policy. No copyright violation detected. Hook fact is verified to the cited reference, and is suitably interesting. This article can be promoted once the QPQ has been done.4meter4 (talk) 19:16, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

@BeanieFan11: As this is supposed to go in the next prep but one to be queued, I suggest stepping on the QPQ.--Laun chba ller 07:43, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

@4meter4 and Launchballer: QPQ done. BeanieFan11 (talk) 00:52, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
