Approve Main Hook The article was made and nominated on the 2nd, so is new enough. It is ~2400 characters, so is long enough, and reads neutrally with proper usage of in-line citations. I think the main hook is more succinct and interesting, so let's go with that. The hook is short enough and is (now) cited in-line. The QPQ has been done and there's no image to review. Looks good to go! Silver seren^C 04:56, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
