|comments = Hello {{u|SounderBruce}}, happy to review this nomination. The article was created on May 16, 2025. It has a readable prose size of 5936 characters. Every paragraph in the article is sourced. The article does not use promotional or overly negative language. WP:EARWIG shows no copyvios. The first hook is supported by the source but I can't find the claim about "600 percent" in the linked source of the second hook. Both hooks are interesting. One QPQ was done but I think two are currently required because of the backlog mode.

• {{ping|Phlsph7}} Second QPQ added (though I really wish the DYK tool had a proper warning for this). As for the hook's sourcing, the 600 percent figure is quoted from the offline April 11, 2005 article of the Post-Intelligencer. SounderBruce 03:47, 28 May 2025 (UTC)
