QPQ: Done.

Overall: The article was created on September 9, and nominated seven days later, therefore it is new enough. Length and sourcing are adequate. The article is neutral in tone. I found no plagiarism concerns. I note that the Earwig tool highlighted many areas, but these are legal terms and direct quotes that properly attributed and necessary to the text. Both proposed hooks are interesting, mentioned in the article, and verified by the cited source. All images used in the article are licensed to the public domain on the Commons. The nominated image is used in the article, clear at a low resolution, and could enhance the hook. The QPQ requirement is complete. Flibirigit (talk) 01:07, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
