Created by PrimalMustelid (talk). Self-nominated at 02:25, 10 January 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Ephelcomenus; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]
Article creation new enough and article much more than long enough. Older book sources that are off line taken as AGF. The article is neutral and the sections are well cited. The hooks are off line and taken agf. If they are deemed "boring" an alternate hook could be created from the suggested survival past the Grande Coupure extinction. Looks good to go.--Kevmin§21:44, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
