• I'll review this. JTtheOG (talk) 23:26, 5 June 2026 (UTC)
• The article is easily new enough and long enough. It is well-written and fully sourced with citations to multiple different reliable sources (I'm not sure if I had heard of The Philadelphia Times before.. always fun to learn about old defunct papers). The hook fact checks out and appears in the article, as well as being sufficiently interesting. There are no identifiable copyvio issues (one source shows a 10% similarity score, but there's no violation). Last but not least, the double QPQs have been completed. Nice work! I see no major issues, so this looks good to go to me. JTtheOG (talk) 06:54, 6 June 2026 (UTC)
