Current page size is 4k, 7.5x or so of the most recent copyvio-free version. Hook cited, interesting, verified from the first source. Article generally well-referenced. QPQ done, no (more) copyvio detected by earwig at least, I'll assume author knows well enough to not copyvio the PDF sources. Good to go. Juxlos (talk) 13:13, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
