Hi
Juxlos (
talk), review follows: article created 31 March and exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout, I will have to AGF on source reliability as I am not familiar with them/cannot read them; AGF there is no overly close paraphrasing from the sources which are almost all in Indonesia, Earwig check is fine; hook is interesting and mentioned in the article, AGF on sourcing (but Google Translate appears to support); a QPQ has been carried out. Looks fine to me -
