New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. However, none of the Newspapers.com articles are clipped; if you could clip those, I could check them too. QPQ done.
I find the hook repetitively worded and therefore not so interesting. Can you suggest another hook angle? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 19:50, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

Yoninah - sorry sorry sorry for this great delay in response. I've locked myself out of my newspapers.com account and am trying to recover the password but I may need to file a request at the library. In the interim, I've given an updated hook, above. Chetsford (talk) 21:53, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Chetsford, I've clipped the newspapers.com articles for you and can conduct the rest of the review since yoninah has been inactive for a bit. I see two cn tags that should be resolved first. Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 15:10, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

Citation needed tags still remain. SL93 (talk) 05:49, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

Had a crack at cleaning that up & removed some list-trivia. ƒirefly ( t · c ) 15:29, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

Issues appear to have been addressed so a new review can be done. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 10:15, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

New enough, meets length requirement, hook has inline citation, article is appropriately written and cited, neutral, no copyright issues. I think Alt0 is the "hookiest" option, but Alt3 is a little clearer. QPQ done. Image is public domain, features in the article, and should look good at front page DYK size. I think this article is ready to go. Glorioussandwich (talk) 15:42, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
