Hi Hawkeye7 review follows: article promoted to GA on 29 March; article is of good length and well written; article is cited inline throughout to reliable sources; no overly close paraphrasing found in a spot check on the sources; hook is interesting, mentioned in the article and backed up by the sources cited; image works well at small scale and is freely and appropriately licensed; a QPQ has been carried out. No issues here - Dumelow (talk) 07:23, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
