- New and long enough, well cited, no other policy issues. Hook is within length and interesting. I think the bold link is hard to see since it is just three numbers. I propose using a longer name as in ALT2 just to make it stand out. Photo is not that sharp, so probably not suitable for DYK image slot, but OK to use license-wise (in PD). QPQ done. Good to go with ALT2.

New reviewer needed for ALT2, since a new fact (Lake Superior) has been added by the reviewer when creating it. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:38, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
- The new ALT2 hook checks out to the source and is interesting. The rest of the review stands per MB. Agree that a longer hook bold might make more sense to highlight that the numbers are the name of the vessel. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 04:30, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
