  • Great job here. This article is a recent GA. Hooks are cited, interesting, article is long enough, there are no copyright violations, QPQ is done, sources are reliable, prose is good, and everything seems to comply with NPOV. I did catch two instances of bare URLs: Source #80 and #84. Please fix these so I can pass the nomination. In addition, Source #2 is dead, at least on my browser. Archive version can be found here.
