General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: Done.

Overall: The articles are definitely interesting, and on their faces they meet the requirements. I should note though that the first article makes it by just a hair, and while the second article meets the prose requirement, much of the article's new length comes from the junction list. I am comfortable with passing these DYKs, but am open to a second opinion from another reviewer. Sky Harbor (talk) 04:06, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
