5x expanded by Joseph2302 (talk). Self-nominated at 14:59, 31 October 2021 (UTC).[reply]

  • Hi Joseph2302, review follows: article more than 5x expanded from previous version of 28 October; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I didn't pick up any issues with overly close paraphrasing in a spotcheck on the sources; hook is interesting and confirmed from the Newspapers.com articles (current refs 11 and 12); I changed "...weeks before the event?" to "... weeks before?" to avoid repetition of event, if you're not happy please feel free to amend; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks fine to me - Dumelow (talk) 11:40, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
