General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: (plagiarism free except of the quote of course! + the check just gives you how many the person did and not how they did vs. How many they nominated!) I enjoyed reading this article. Overall, Well sourced (did not verify all references but checked up to the hook) although an image for the persona would have added more perspective. Nevertheless, Good work! Let's brainstorm some hooks .. I will come back with some hook suggestions as the current one needs some work especially around the word “maintains” FuzzyMagma (talk) 17:18, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

@Launchballer: here some hooks ..

      • To be honest, I saw this, wrote a QPQ for it, and then forgot to actually comment here. I'm not quite sure what the problem with the word 'maintains' is; I do know that none of the hooks proposed make grammatical sense. I propose the following:
      • ALT4: ... that the American comedian Kemah Bob performs a drag king act, Lil' Test Ease?--Launchballer 21:25, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
        • To be honest I'm not sure either. Speaking as a drive-by commentator, I think the original hook is fine as-is. ♠PMC(talk) 21:51, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
Ok let's go by the original hookFuzzyMagma (talk) 22:41, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
