This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline for ALT1 but ALT0 is not present in the article, as far as I can see. The image is in the public domain, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:22, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
