Johnbod: I find this very ready and eligible for DYK. QPQ, length, newness etc fine. The article is interesting and so is the hook. I have no problems with referencing either. I think the image chosen is as good as any for demonstrating the concept of surface tone. Good to go. Rcsprinter123 (confabulate) 17:43, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
