• • Providing a courtesy second opinion for Staraction. Their review was done appropriately and accurately addressed every element–nice work! I'm tagging this as a AGF review because I'm essentially 100% certain on the source being cited here appropriately sourced but don't speak any Scandinavian languages. In any case, the video is abundantly clear on the content. This is a well-written article. I, sadly, have a hard time making out the image at 120px, but that's a subjective view and I defer to Staraction's original review on that point. Great work to you both! ~ Pbritti (talk) 16:43, 24 December 2024 (UTC)
