Improved to Good Article status by IceWelder (talk). Self-nominated at 20:52, 11 November 2020 (UTC).
Recently promoted to GA status (neutral, no copyright issues), QPQ done, hooks are good and are cited. I prefer for ALT2, as it appeals to a broader audience. Le Panini Talk 14:18, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
Template:Ping if you want ALT2, you have to make sure it has an inline cite in the article per WP:DYK#Cited hook. Yoninah (talk) 18:54, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

- Template:Ping well, I've gotta follow the rules. Could you point out the sentence in the source that verifies ALT2? I'm having trouble locating it. Yoninah (talk) 19:09, 21 November 2020 (UTC)
