New enough (Oct 30), long enough (9300 B), well-sourced. Earwig flags 41.2% chance of copyvio, but mostly names of universities. Both hooks verified in source, and ALT0 appropriately uses a primary source. I prefer ALT0 as it stands out as a unique thing; ALT1 is less interesting as it focuses on the team rather than Suggs. — Vigilant Cosmic Penguin 🐧 (talk | contribs) 20:57, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
