Quote supplied, matches hook, new enough (5x expanded), long enough, well written and looks good. Interesting. The lead image of this article will haunt me forever. Seems good to go. Alt1 is fine but less interesting, and also hard to follow + kind of tangential to this article. PARAKANYAA (talk) 18:12, 30 September 2024 (UTC)- Comment completely unrelated to DYK eligibility, but is "e0008208" a page number? If it's for a figure it should use the loc= parameter.

- @PARAKANYAA: Thanks for the review! I agree that Alt1 is kind of odd and tangential so the first hook may be better. e0008208 is in fact a page number and not a figure. Some medical journals have really weird page numbers. IntentionallyDense (talk) 20:18, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
- TIL. Thanks! PARAKANYAA (talk) 20:22, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
