Created by Topshelver (talk). Self-nominated at 16:35, 8 August 2022 (UTC).

Article is new and long enough, well written, and adequately cited with reliable sources. Article was nominated within 7 days of being created. QPQ has been completed. Only pings on Earwigs are for some long proper titles. Hook is interesting, cited, and short enough for DYK. Morgan695 (talk) 21:09, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
