Comment: I'd really love for this to run in the photo slot if possible, for reasons. There are lots of other hook options (and lots of other potential photos) if someone else wants to have a try.

@Nomader and Ezlev: hi! the article is marked as reading like an advertisement—could this be taken care of first? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 01:46, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

theleekycauldron, I think the article is sourced and neutral, and Nomader's review corroborates that – I was just iffy about removing the issue tag myself since I'm the sole author of the article prose. That said, those factors combined with the lack of explanation for the tag make me comfortable enough to remove it, so I've done that. ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 02:17, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- In that case, this is good to go once again! theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 02:24, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
