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: Done.

Overall: Article is new enough, long enough. Hook facts are interesting - I knew the first, but younger readers may not remember when Bejeweled was everywhere. Earwig showed no issues with close paraphrasing. I do prefer ALT0, as it speaks to why it matters, but ALT1 also works.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 03:20, 28 November 2024 (UTC)
