General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Looks good. I wasn't aware what a special designation was before and once I knew what it means the hook made a lot more sense. I like the second hook more as it's easier to understand without knowing what a special designation is. Moved from user page on 17 January, almost 8,000 characters, well sourced, no obvious plagiarism, hook is verified. Eóin (talk) 21:43, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
