- Not a review, but I find ALT0 to be the more interesting of the two, though I'd truncate it at "ever" and that statement would require an end-of-sentence citation in any event.--Launchballer 00:18, 1 December 2024 (UTC)
- Date, size, GA status, all good. I concur with Launchballer that ALT0 is more interesting (and simpler). QPQ not required but I'll ask User:Hemiauchenia to help with our backlog if they'd like to do "us" a favor. Cheers, --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:55, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
