General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: - Not done
Overall: Nice Article about an Encyclopedia. The article is new enough and long enough. Earwig gives no obvious plagiarism (the high value depends on the table of contents and the name of the encyclopedia). It is well referenced, AGF on the not accessible sources. There is no picture. The two hooks are interesting and cited in the article (I prefer the quirky one :-)). Waiting for the QPQ... Alex2006 (talk) 16:06, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Alessandro57: added qpq. Whispyhistory (talk) 20:30, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the giant delay, @Whispyhistory:, but the ping didn't work this time, and I am busy in real world...QPQ done, good to go! Cheers, Alex2006 (talk) 19:20, 22 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
