• New enough (August 1), long enough (22,000 B), well-sourced. All hooks cited inline. ALT0 and ALT1 verified in sources, ALT2 accepted in good faith. ALT3 not quite verified—the source says it took less than five weeks, so the phrasing in the article is okay but not the DYK hook. Approving ALT0, ALT1, ALT2. Preference for ALT0, which is the only one I really find interesting. — Vigilant Cosmic Penguin 🐧 (talk | contribs) 22:46, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
