@Nice4What:D6 - DYK is only concerned with Dispute Tags on the nominated article, not all articles it's linked to. An "outdated" tag is not a dispute tag, in any event. — Maile (talk) 00:10, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This article is new enough and long enough. The image is suitably licensed, the hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:51, 2 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
