Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Thank you for this, Blz 2049 - I loved the Response section - highly entertaining. No problems with the article and hooks.

(Checks: (1) Article dates: created 7 April, GA 20 April, nom 11 April (all is well here). (2) Some sentences introducing lists, tables etc. are not cited, but they repeat or clarify information within the lists, which are cited, so that's OK. (3) Earwig finds lots of proper names and lists of names, but no actual copyvio.)

This nom is good to go. Storye book (talk) 15:37, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
