... that William Chapple discovered Euler's theorem and Poncelet's porism? Source: https://doi.org/10.1007%2Fs00022-014-0257-8 for Euler, https://doi.org/10.1007%2Fs00407-015-0163-y for Poncelet, but likely both will be paywalled.

Article is new enough, long enough, neutral, and fully cited. Hook is interesting and supported with paywalled sources, accepted AGF. QPQ is done. No copyvio detected. Good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 04:46, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
