- Well...! Okay then. Article is new and long enough, as well as sourced, neutral, and plagiarism-free. All hooks are interesting, although I'm going to ask that if ALT0 is used, it be attributed in-hook to Boyce Watkins as a social commentator—I've added that in there. For hook citation, i'm not comfortable leaning on MTV news, but the NPR source'll suffice for them all. A QPQ has been done, so we're good to go—great work! theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 03:37, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
