Overall: It took me way too long to find a nomination I could review that I wouldn't have to fail on interestingness, so congrats on bucking that unfortunate trend. Everything here checks out—no copyvio on Earwig, sourcing appears fine (although I had to rely a bit on Google Translate), etc. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 06:58, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
