Hi Cwmhiraeth, review follows: article created 29 October and exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I didn't spot any overly close paraphrasing from the few sources I could access; hook fact is interesting and mentioned in the article, AGF on sourcing; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks fine to me - Dumelow (talk) 08:29, 4 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
