Jon698 This nomination still requires a QPQ to be done. Please can you review another article for the QPQ when you have time? Joseph2302 (talk) 16:55, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Joseph2302: Done. Jon698 (talk) 21:18, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Y QPQ now done
Y Article is long enough (5865 characters), new enough (created as non-redirect on 12 June, nominated 13 June) and article is within policy
Y Hook is short enough, interesting enough, in the article, and well cited
Overall, this nomination passes, congratulations. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:33, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
