@Omnis Scientia, this article looks to be in better shape than it was last July, particularly with the contributions of @GOAT Bones231012. Do either of you plan on nominating it for Good Article some time soon? If so I would be happy to review; just ping me. -- Reconrabbit (talk) 15:09, 10 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
