Overall: 
Nice work, Kavyansh.Singh! I really enjoyed reading and reviewing this article. Please note that I am accepting the vast majority of references in good faith because I don't have access to JSTOR or the books cited. With that in mind, I think this nomination is good to go.

Well, this idea just struck my mind, and I don't know whether this would be useful or not, but @Michael Barera and @Theleekycauldron, how does ALT1 look? Is it April Fool's Day material? Better hook ideas? – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 18:51, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
ALT1 – ... that Mr. Bean accurately predicted the results of many American elections? Source: Well, case by case prediction is provided in the article, with an incline citation against all of them.
- That would work for me. Another idea would perhaps be to integrate the famous "Dewey Defeats Truman" headline into this somehow? Michael Barera (talk) 19:52, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

- Well, not really sure I qualify as the AFD "expert", it just seems to have fallen to me in previous years to try and apply some editorial discretion to what ends up appearing on the MP on the day in question.
- As for the above hook - not a great AFD submission by any means IMO, but it might do as a reserve if an AFD set is a bit short. Gatoclass (talk) 03:35, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
- If that is the case, I have no issues running the main hook with/without image anytime, if not on AFD. Thanks! – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 10:19, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
