Number of QPQs required: 1. Nominator has 220 past nominations.
Post-promotion hook changes will be logged on the talk page; consider watching the nomination until the hook appears on the Main Page.Launchballer 15:58, 18 April 2024 (UTC).
5x expanded by nom. Article is adequately sourced, no issues arose upon checking. The largest similarity result from Earwig is just due to a quoted passage from a critic. Hooks are interesting, I personally like the first hook and ALT2 the most, but all are good and work. QPQ OK. Nicely done! Good to go. B3251 (talk) 15:25, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
