This article is of a reasonable size at nearly 20,000 bytes, plus it appears to be covered by reliable sources and created as recently as one week prior to the nomination. The hook is cited properly, though I would recommend the first one rather than the ALT. --K. Peake 08:50, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
