Length, history and reference verified. I would, however, suggest a more succint ALT1 by using the active voice and getting rid of the redundancy (when someone proposes something, it is an idea by definition, and it is also first by definition):

ALT1: ... that it was Caltech experimental physicist Rana X. Adhikari's idea to build a a gravitational-wave observatory in India? Daniel Case (talk) 03:46, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Daniel Case I agree that ALT1 suggestion is an improvement. Original has been striked out on Michael D. Turnbull suggestion. Thank you both. - Quentinhotwater (talk)
