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: Overall, this is a really good DYK! I personally like ALT0, as it gives a bit more info on who it passed to become #1. Earwig showed only a ~4% copyvio likeliness, which falls far into the "okay" category. The article is also new enough (I noticed that you moved the article into mainspace on September 3, so you're fine there) and long enough. :) Sir MemeGod :D (talk - contribs - created articles) 22:29, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
