Overall: New enough, neutral, good sourcing, no copyvio, no other issues (provisional, given the likely expansions following official release), some comments on the hooks. Also the QPQ is a year old, but it doesn't look like you've used it for any other DYK nom, so should be good. Thanks for your work on the article! Dizzycheekchewer (talk) 06:53, 15 April 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for the review, Dizzycheekchewer. Made some edits to both the article and the hook with your suggestions in mind. Let me know if anything else is required.--N Ø 03:50, 16 April 2026 (UTC)
