  • The article was moved to main space 1-20-24 and so qualifies for DYK. The QPQ is done and the the article is sourced with the proper inline citations. I find ALT0 moderately interesting and cited in the article. Earwig does not alert to violations and a spot check shows that CLOP is not an issue. Not a DYK issue, but some areas suffer from WP:OVERCITE also consider the citations in the lead may not be needed per WP:LEADCITE (the material is already cited in the body - I checked). The image is not offered here but the infobox image is free. Bruxton (talk) 18:21, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

So far, this fulfills all the criteria.
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable, as shown by a source spot-check.
    a (reference section): b (inline citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have non-free use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    I'm passing the article. All of the sources are reliable, with even the "In popular culture" section being sourced. There are no grammar mistakes, the article's image is free-use, the article is stable, all the citations support each sentence, and most importantly, it's broad and neutral in its coverage. Have a good day. OhHaiMark (talk) 13:21, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
