• Article promoted to GA on 22 November; article is cited inline throughout to reliable sources; sources are mostly offline but I found no overly close paraphrasing form the ones I could access; hook fact is interesting, stated in article, it is cited offline but checks out in the Encyclopedia of Arkansas source; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks fine to me - Dumelow (talk) 18:03, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
