Comment: Titodutta's idea to nom this - thanks Tittodutta

Reviewing... DTM (talk) 05:43, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Article created on 5 April 2020 and nominated within time. It is long enough and Earwigs checks out - "Violation Unlikely". The hook image is used in the article, is clear enough, and is licensed adequately. No issues with the first hook.

Just two clarifications needed. One - Is 'The Logical Indian' (thelogicalindian.com) a reliable enough source here? Two - I am a bit unsure about whether a QPQ is needed here or not...?

Thanks for the review. Clarifications. Not sure about the QPQ either but I anticipated that it may be required so I reviewed this for QPQ.... As for TheLogicalIndian.com. I had that worry too but I read here. This site is not aspiring to clickbait (as many former newspapers are doing). I could find a different source but I don't think I could find a more reliable one.

Thanks for the explanation. Everything seems alright to me. GTG
