There's an uncited paragraph in Games - Overwatch series and the sentence " During this period, humanity prospered and omnics began to be treated as people." should be cited too. Waiting on that and a QPQ before I approve.

::::Hey, {{ping|Soulbust}} I still need the sentence "During this period, humanity prospered and omnics began to be treated as people." Then I'll approve this. Onegreatjoke (talk) 13:26, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
