 * Symbol delete vote.svg Article gained GA status, and was nominated for DYK on time. It is long enogh and neutral. "Earwig's Copyvio Detector" reports high-rate text similarities, even paragraph-long: 51.0% at, 23.7% at , 23.7% at , 15.3% at , 15.3% at , 12.3% at . Copyediting is needed. The hook is well-formatted (I prefer the original one). Its length is within limit and its fact is cited inline. QPQ was done. CeeGee 16:05, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Hmm, I don't think it needs a copy edit. The video description seems to be a copy and paste of the article's page well before the video was published (1), same goes for the two sources from "IndianPoint" as the article's content was first (2) & (3), the rest (4-6) are used as quotes in the reception of the article (or share common words/phrases within the article as other sources use as well) and thus doesn't seem to be a problem as they're properly cited thereafter. You would think the GA reviewer would see that, if not, then the article wouldn't have passed so easily. :P  Adog  ( Talk ・ Cont ) 18:34, 24 March 2019 (UTC)

 * Symbol confirmed.svg This article is a newly-promoted GA and is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline and any of the hooks could be used, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues, although other sites seem to have copied Wikipedia. A QPQ has been done.
