 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article is new enough, long enough, neutral, and well referenced. Both hooks are interesting, neutral, and supported with supplied sources, although I find ALT1 more interesting than ALT0. QPQ is verified. No copyvio detected. Good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 05:07, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
