  • New enough. Long enough, at 13,116 characters.
  • Did a spot check for plagiarism and close-paraphrasing; what I saw looks good. Clever way to source refs 3-20. Ref2 in the lead, though, is incorrect; it should be changed to ref24 (another Nation source). I find that these kinds of errors pop up a lot, so please make sure your refs go to the right sources.
  • Hook is interesting (mentioning Lady Gaga is always a good idea), with the right source, and is long enough. QPQ done. Fix the above-mentioned error and I'll AGF that you checked your sources, and I'll pass this. Interesting and fun article, good work. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 22:59, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
