The hooks is, in fact, interesting, good, and backed up by three reliable sources. You might consider posting to Wikipedia talk:Did you know#Halloween set (this has no impact at all on approval; I just don't know if you've seen the discussion there). I looked over the article for compliance with policies and noticed a couple of minor issue to resolve:
  • For "His popularity from Polygon enabled him to create his own content full-time."(24 September 2024) the source supports the order of events but only speculates on causality. If there's not a more direct source, I'd suggest moving this to the beginning of the paragraph and writing chronologically as a topic sentence, something like, "After developing a fanbase on Polygon, Gilbert began to create his own content full-time."
  • For "invoked leftist themes",(24 September 2024) is there a more clear verb to use here? (employed? included?)

@Vigilantcosmicpenguin: {{ping}} me and I'll mark this back as approved, Rjjiii (talk) 04:04, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

  • @Rjjiii: Done. I made the change you suggested on the Polygon statement, and I changed "invoked" to "involved". — Vigilant Cosmic Penguin 🐧 (talk | contribs) 05:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
    Oh, involved! Looks good, Rjjiii (talk) 05:20, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
    I just want to pop in and ask that this be run on Halloween to go with the other hooks people are doing for that day. Di (they-them) (talk) 23:48, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
