Overall:

The "favorable reviews" of his research could use some expansion—that's four citations yet only one sentence—but that's just my own opinion and isn't a DYK requirement, seeing it already passes the minimum article length. Unless anyone has any other concerns or I missed something, this should be good to go. AdoTang (talk) 20:59, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
