General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall:

Recently 5x 17x expanded. Hook source taken in good faith as it's an offline source (the sentence ends in two footnotes, but it appears the online one is used for an earlier part of the sentence and does not mention Mussolini). No copyvio probs, most of what Earwig threw up is multi-word proper nouns so nothing to worry about. Is it worth using an image from Commons:Category:Columbus Monument (Syracuse, New York)? Other than that, hook is interesting, QPQ is done. Good to go. MIDI (talk) 09:56, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
