• @Juxlos: This was an interesting article. The article was created within the last seven days at the time of the nomination (created April 9), is over the required prose size, and has no copyvio concerns (according to Earwig). For hooks, I would prefer ALT0 or 2. All that needs to be fixed is that ALT02 is not sourced at the end of the sentence. Per 3b "Each fact in the hook must be supported in the article by at least one inline citation to a reliable source, appearing no later than the end of the sentence(s) offering that fact. Citations at the end of the paragraph are not sufficient." Fix this and I think you're good to go. QPQ is also done. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 21:27, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
