- Comment: More hooks later. I copied a few paragraphs from the 1964 New York World's Fair article, but that info was added by me when I completely rewrote that article on June 4, so I think it still meets the newness criterion.

I like ALT1 the best, and the sourcing checks out on it. Article is eligible from newness and is in pretty good shape all around. No evidence of copyvio. QPQ checks out. I think everything here is in good working order! Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 18:08, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
