Article now meets expansion and sourcing requirements. The first hook is probably the more interesting of the two: cited to an offline source so AGF accepted, although the quote is in the article. No close paraphrasing found (only a false positive for the quote in the article), and a QPQ has been done. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 23:59, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
