Article move-to-visible-space date versus filing date okay. Article length okay at 2830 B (441 words) readable prose size. Article sourcing good, neutrality good, no evidence signs of copyvio. QPQ done well. Hook length okay, neutrality okay, sourcing AGF in non-English journal article. Hook interest comes from the mystery of what exactly the book is about.
