Hi Eddie891, review follows: article created 13 December; article exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline to reliable sources throughout; I didn't pick up any overly close paraphrasing from the sources; hooks are all mentioned in the article, I can verify ALT0 and ALT1, happy to AGF on the paywalled ALT2; just awaiting a QPQ on this one - Dumelow (talk) 06:30, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
