Created by Valereee (talk). Number of QPQs required: 1. Nominator has 74 past nominations.

Article is new enough (created 10/10), long enough, sourced, presentable, and no copyvio detected. Hook is interesting, short enough and supported by in-line citation. QPQ satisfied. Cbl62 (talk) 16:56, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

Launchballer, oh, good point. I've removed for now, I'll keep looking to see if I can find mention somewhere. I know it must be out there. Valereee (talk) 20:04, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
