- It may be a proactive move to run the IABot over the page and references.
- This page has suffered vandalism of the juvenile kind. The page has fewer than 30 watchers, so management of this particular issue merits attention.
- Nonetheless this is a pleasing article, well scribed. --Whiteguru (talk) 11:04, 16 August 2021 (UTC)

QPQ: Done. |
Overall: Article is a recent GA, sourced and long enough. No copyvio on Earwig and qpq has been provided. The only problem is that the hooks are a little bland. ALT0 and ALT1 are fairly basic. ALT2 has potential but it would have to be shortened and made a little pithier. Other than that this looks like a great nom! BuySomeApples (talk) 02:09, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

- Hi @Lazman321: that hook works! It's a lot more concise, I made a tweak to include the fact that it's a Bestseller since that stood out to me in the source. I also changed the link to an archived version, since the live link gives me a 404. This nom looks good to go now. BuySomeApples (talk) 17:35, 24 August 2021 (UTC)
