5x expanded by Z1720 (talk). Self-nominated at 02:52, 10 July 2022 (UTC).

Newly expanded more than fivefold, long enough, interesting, neutral tone, no copyvio issues per Earwig, item cited in line, QPQ completed. This is good to go. I prefer the first hook over the simple fact stated in ALT1. Topshelver (talk) 17:23, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
