:*[[File:Symbol confirmed.svg|16px]] Hi [[User:Raymie|Raymie]], review follows: article more than 5x expanded 8-9 August and exceeds minimum length (even if discounting some of the overlapping content); article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I didn't pick up any issues with overly close paraphrasing from a spot check on the sources; hook is excellent, mentioned in the article and checks out to the sources cited; my only recommendation is that you expand the lead to summarise the article content per [[WP:LEAD]], but I won't hold up the approval because of this - [[User:Dumelow|Dumelow]] ([[User talk:Dumelow|talk]]) 14:14, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
