Overall: Article was given GA status and nominated for DYK shortly after. QPQ is done - with one required as nomination pre-8 March. Article is long enough, well sourced, neutral and plagiarism free. Earwig picks up titles of organisations and books, which are unavoidable. Hooks are cited and interesting. I prefer ALT0 or ALT2. Lajmmoore (talk) 08:02, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
