Hi BeanieFan11, review follows: article created 6 July and just exceeds minimum length (that given there are no obvious omissions given the subjects relatively recent notability); sources cited are all in French but look to be reliable enough; happy to AGF there is no overly close paraphrasing, nothing feels machine translated to me; hook is reasonably interesting, though might be lost among other "firsts" at this Olympics; hook is cited inline, the source is subscription-only so will need to AGF but it's title appears to confirm it. Two matters to clear up: I've added a citation needed tag to his event type as it's not mentioned elsewhere in the article and a QPQ is awaited - Dumelow (talk) 15:17, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Dumelow: Apologies for the delay. The QPQ is done. As for the event, per our article (Comoros at the 2024 Summer Olympics) it seems he'll compete in that, but from a quick look I haven't been able to find a source for the event specifically. I've hidden it for now, with plans to re-add it later as I'm sure within the next few days there should be something to source it, with when the competitors are all finalized. Is that all right?

ThanksBeanieFan11, looks good to me - Dumelow (talk) 08:41, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Dumelow and BeanieFan11, I am not entirely sure this counts as "interesting", if I am wrong please let me know. 48JCL public (talk) 18:12, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In my view, it's interesting enough. Schwede 66 19:54, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
