ThadeusOfNazereth, thanks for the review. The quote "ten elephant loads of gold and silver" is from (Fernquest 2006: 8) (https://www.burmalibrary.org/sites/burmalibrary.org/files/obl/docs4/4.2Fernquest.pdf). I've moved the citation next to the quote in the article as well.
Re: your suggested hook, yes, it reads better. Thanks. Hybernator (talk) 22:27, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
Perfect! You linked the wrong Fernquest paper here but its correct in the article. ALT1 is approved! ThadeusOfNazereth(he/him)^{Talk to Me!} 22:48, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

@Hybernator: It would be good for you to include something here in the nomination so that a source can be confirmed. Every source in the article is offline. I say that you have more than 100 QPQs so I will AGF. We will see if the promote-to-queue administrators require more. Bruxton (talk) 14:18, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
