This wasn't an article until now?? Long enough for sure, no signs of copyvio, eligible in terms of newness and presentable. For ALT0: Interesting and the source checks out (ooh, Genovese, nice), and the image is nice and relevant too. No QPQ needed here; seems good to go. :) Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 23:27, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
