- Comment: This guy was such a bizarre character that several more hooks could be created if necessary. I just proposed some of the ones I think are the most strange and interesting.

- @PizzaKing13: As you already have more than five nominations, you are required to provide a QPQ. As per a recent rule change, a QPQ should have been provided at the time of the nomination. One must be provided soon, or else the nomination is liable to be closed without warning. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 04:34, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
Full review needed; QPQ has been submitted above. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:13, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
QPQ has been done. GA status confirmed. DYK has been submitted here within two days of the GA nom, so it is new enough. All hooks above are good, and indeed many are very interesting - hard to choose one to go with. Perhaps two could even be combined and stay within the word limit, if the closing admin feels this would be justified. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 14:20, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
