The article was created yesterday, is clearly long enough and has no obvious copyvios. The image is CC-BY-SA 4.0 and hosted on Commons. The hook is cited to Kappelli Maltin and it is also cross-referenced in the Times of Malta and the website visitgozo.com (no idea if that's affiliated with the local tourist board or not so I'll not treat it as a super-reliable source).
