Overall: @HickoryOughtShirt?4 Good article! Hooks are interesting and the article is new and long enough. Just waiting on a QPQ and then i'll approve it. Onegreatjoke (talk) 02:47, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Onegreatjoke I have started the QPQ process but the user isn't responding to me. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 02:22, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@HickoryOughtShirt?4: Ok but question. Do ongoing reviews count as QPQs?. Onegreatjoke (talk) 21:25, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Onegreatjoke I pinged BlueMoonset who is definitely more knowledgable on this topic than I am. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 02:28, 8 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The QPQ has to be a full review covering all the DYK criteria, from length and timeliness to policy issues such as neutrality and copyvio to the hook. HickoryOughtShirt?4, you don't need to wait for the nominator to respond to your review, but you do need to fully finish the QPQ review before Onegreatjoke can approve this nomination. BlueMoonset (talk) 18:36, 8 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@BlueMoonset and Onegreatjoke:, the QPQ has been satisfied. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 01:49, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@HickoryOughtShirt?4:

Alright, approving. Onegreatjoke (talk) 02:55, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
