Article is new and long enough (expansion 374 B → 3108 B, 8.31×). Hook is interesting and cited (a note: if the quote given as the source above is quoting the article, we're good; if it's quoting the source, then the article should be re-worded to avoid direct copying. I'd check this myself but I'm not able to read the source and I don't want to pass judgement based on a translated webpage). No issues from Earwig and the article's sourcing as a whole looks solid. QPQ has been completed, so this will be GTG as soon as I can get confirmation that the article's wording isn't copied from the source (I assume it isn't, just want to cover my bases).

- @PCN02WPS: Thanks for reviewing this nomination with diligence. The above quote is from various points of the article. ❯❯❯ Mccunicano ☕️ 00:16, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
  - okay, that's what I figured but I just wanted to make sure. In that case, the source for the hook is provided and I will AGF since it's foreign-language, meaning the nomination is good to go! PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 04:05, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
