Passes DYK Check for date, prose size, length. No issues with neutrality, sourcing, and a scan for copyvios is mainly turning up titles and quotations. Hook is properly formatted, is interesting enough, and fully backed by the source, which is used as an in-line citation in the article. This is my first DYK review, so let me know if I missed anything. -- Patar knight - ^chat/_{contributions} 23:52, 26 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
