This article is a five-fold expansion and is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:48, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I came by to promote this, but it doesn't sound hooky. Maybe it would be hookier if you named the emperors. Yoninah (talk) 17:45, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks. Reworded as following: CeeGee 09:57, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
