Moved to mainspace by MrLinkinPark333 (talk). Self-nominated at 00:35, 2 December 2019 (UTC).
Article is new enough (moved to mainspace on 1 December), long enough (2,487), NPOV, effective use of inline citations. Adequate QPQ provided. The hooks are interesting, short enough, my preference is ALT0 which is verified by the newspaper article and website. Good to go. Cowlibob (talk) 14:48, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
