Trial complete. 42 pages. @BabbaQ: Your assistance would be appreciated. Hasteur (talk) 02:30, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Hasteur: It looks good. And trial completed. BabbaQ (talk) 06:12, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just out of curiosity, would it make more sense to put the template on its own line? Primefac (talk) 17:16, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Primefac: I'm happy to add a newline so that the template will be broken out to it's own line. It's a trivial change. Hasteur (talk) 17:00, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent.

 Approved.. Primefac (talk) 17:02, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
