Length is fine, citations look fine, new enough. The hooks is interesting, and sourced. I've taken the liberty of fixing some grammar, wikifying, and some other little changes. It looks like this is your third DYK, so you don't need to do a review :D. Passed by me, thanks for writing it! Frzzl talk · contribs 08:31, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- @AdmiralAckbar1977, Frzzl, and AirshipJungleman29: I've pulled this from prep on account of a WP:CLOP tag placed on the article by Netherzone. Discussion can continue here. Thanks! theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 18:40, 21 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  - Hello and thanks for the ping. It looks like the close paraphrasing has been cleaned up. I'll remove the tag. Netherzone (talk) 22:40, 21 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    - restamping per original review, then :) theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 01:27, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
