• These are some really good hooks for WP:DYKAPRIL. I'll leave it to the reviewer to decide whether to use one of them, although next April is still quite far away. Thanks for the suggestion. Umais🗣 06:50, 22 June 2026 (UTC)
  • Full review still needed, thanks :) theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 19:21, 29 June 2026 (UTC)

• Article is new enough, long enough, and in a good place on presentability (interesting page!). QPQ looks good. Not a fan exactly of Guinness World Records being used for the hook cite (it's not the most reliable org), but its pretty non-controversial and it's also discussed in RSs ( and ).

Otherwise the hooks could use a tweak to get to DYKINT—most people don't know the details of 405 KGs of TNT equivalent or 170 tonnes in relative terms and specific decimal-point numbers feel a little unnecessary (e.g. "over 400" makes the point). A simple change to it as record-breaking or "the most" would make that a bit clearer/intriguing. It could also be fun to mention that the two previous record-holders were both James Bond movies, but that might turn a little clunky. Let me know what you think. Nice work!
