Hi @InterstellarGamer12321 — thanks for the review. To be honest, little was done because I believe the original submission was in error; see the SigCov table I wrote up. Unfortunately, the editor who declined went inactive shortly after doing so, so I wasn't able to discuss with him. If you disagree with the SigCov table, I'd be happy to discuss more, but as it stands, I'm very confident that it meets GNG requirements.

I think the article needs a cleanup. There are references with sigcov, but I assumed that there were issues with them because the last editor declined the draft. He had not left a specific comment, so his reasons were open to interpretation. Proofread the article, making sure to cite the reliable references but not cause WP:REFBOMBING. Once you have proofread it and resubmitted it I will accept the article. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 17:50, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for the quick response. I've made changes; Special:Diff/1140572190. I will say that 1Day in general received a lot of media coverage, which is why there are a lot of refs, but point taken re: the potential for refbombing. I suspect that there might have been confusion by the original reviewer based on a Ctrl + F search in a spotcheck of some of the articles — people variously wrote about "1Day Sooner", "OneDaySooner", "1 Day Sooner", etc.
I've removed a few single-instance citations. In the case of the survey article, where I cited a peer-reviewed PLOS ONE paper that included 1Day Sooner members, I also include citation to independent, significant coverage of the paper in Vox, which names 1Day Sooner and highlights the same two points made (re: altruism and potential exploitation) in the draft article. My goal was to make sure I wasn't just relying on possibly primary coverage to push what we wanted to be publicized out of that study.
