Reviewing....new enough, long enough, QPQ provided. Will complete soon. Whispyhistory (talk) 17:10, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No copyvio issues, hook in article and followed by inline citation to reference with hook fact. Adding Mahatma Gandhi to the hook might make it more interesting. To clarify in article, it was some of his ashes scattered in that lake. Otherwise, it is a nice short hook. Whispyhistory (talk) 05:36, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I clarified that in the article. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:14, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
