Akrasia25 was the original author of the article, don't see where to add their name.

Article: Passed as a GA the day it was nominated (March 6)

, long enough

, no policy issues here

Hook: Length,

neutral,

and more than interesting.

The inline citations in the article that the hook refers to are a Wayback Machine link, and an offline citation to a book that I'm going to accept in good faith. I would only suggest next time that you include them on the DYK nomination. It makes it easier to review it that way.

QPQ: first nomination by the reviewer, no need for it here. Image: I can't detect any issue with the license.

Good to go.

I've added a credit template for Akrasia25. Note that the nominator is Kwamikagami, who appears to have at least 4 DYK credits already; this, being the 5th, would be the last "free" one, before QPQ is required. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 21:13, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
