QPQ: Done.

Overall: ALT0 way too long. Added ALT2, which I believe is "hookier" than present hooks. Given a QPQ, this nom is good to go.Georgejdorner (talk) 04:41, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

• Since the reviewer proposed ALT2, we need a different editor to review it. Yoninah (talk) 16:27, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

• @Yoninah: Should I contact someone about a review? GreatLakesShips (talk) 13:43, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

• Sure. I'll ping Kingsif for help here. Yoninah (talk) 14:08, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
