Outstanding little article. QPQ done, hook is extraordinarily fascinating and appropriately cited (AGF on sources as they are in Japanese). No copyvios noticed. Great job! Note to promoters: consider dropping "historic" as extraneous glossing when placing this in a prep or the queue. ~ Pbritti (talk) 01:51, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
