5x expanded by Gog the Mild (talk). Self-nominated at 11:35, 11 February 2021 (UTC).
The article has been expanded more than 5x, and is now plenty long enough. The writing isn't too bad, if rather short on commas :P. I can detect no copyvio, and the images all appear to be appropriately licensed or PD. Content is sourced throughout, and the hook is interesting and referenced (offline sources, AGF). QPQ is done. Good to go. GirthSummit (blether) 16:17, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
- @Girth Summit:, many thanks, and I am with Lyn Truss on commas. Gog the Mild (talk) 16:27, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
