@Queen of Hearts: Would you like to start the review? WritingAboutCreepypastas (talk) 08:27, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WritingAboutCreepypastas, you've caught me at the wrong time. I've been suffering from unexpected medical issues. If I don't start this by the end of the week, please close this as unsuccessful. Queen of Hearts ❤️ (no relation) 18:04, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This looks good and the text was very easy-to-follow. I removed some contractions, but other than that it should be good for GA pending some spotchecks. Comprehensiveness isn't in the purview of GA, but I wondered if there was more about the case considering there are only 11 refs?

It's been almost 2 weeks, I lost interest, real life got in the way,

Request withdrawn. I might later resubmit this in a better state. Queen of Hearts ❤️ (she/they 🎄 🏳️‍⚧️) 05:20, 17 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
