Starting this review. Updates to follow. Ktin (talk) 17:24, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Article meets eligibility criteria - 5x expanded. Meets length expectations, is well sourced and is neutral. ~~Earwig seems to be down, will come back for Copyvio checks, though I would be surprised if it shows up an issue.~~ All good on Earwig. Hook is interesting and is cited / referenced to a FCC licensing letter / case finding. Question to the nominator - I think this sourcing is good, but, do you think this might constitute a primary source? In addition, can we find a secondary source as well. If this is difficult, I am good to go with this source. QPQ done. Ktin (talk) 17:35, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ktin: Any news report will necessarily quote this very letter; one such source is already included in the article generally. I think it is an acceptable source. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 21:53, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. Marking this nomination as approved. Nicely done. Thanks. Ktin (talk) 21:56, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
