QPQ: Done.

Overall: Once you do a QPQ this is ready to go. The article already satisfies length standards so you can keep expanding the article. epicgenius (talk) 00:37, 11 September 2019 (UTC)

Added a QPQ which I am reviewing now: Epicgenius Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 07:32, 11 September 2019 (UTC)

@Lee Vilenski: Good to go now. I don't think it matters that you finished a review, just that you started it. I may be wrong, though, but trust that you will actually finish that QPQ. epicgenius (talk) 13:39, 11 September 2019 (UTC)

I don't think it matters too much. The reviews normally change a lot between the initial review and it being on main page anyway, I doubt this would all work if we forced every review to get to that stage for QPQ. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:44, 11 September 2019 (UTC)

Lee Vilenski, epicgenius, in order for a QPQ to qualify, it needs to have reached the point where all the DYK criteria have been covered and a review icon given, even if that is a query or "maybe" or even "no" icon rather than one of the two ticks. If a tick isn't given, the reviewer typically sticks around to check that the requested improvements are done, but that isn't required for QPQ credit to be obtained. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:52, 12 September 2019 (UTC)

BlueMoonset, does this mean i would have to stick around to see if Lee Vilenski has done the QPQ? I don't think it makes much of a difference in either case. I just find it an inconvenience to revoke the tick only to place it again a few hours/days later. epicgenius (talk) 15:59, 12 September 2019 (UTC)

epicgenius, I think at this point, since the only thing that is missing from the QPQ is the icon and neither of you seem to have been aware that it was needed, there's no need to revoke the tick here. Lee Vilenski will surely put it in place shortly (and if they forget, the eventual promoter will likely remind them before this goes to prep). BlueMoonset (talk) 17:01, 12 September 2019 (UTC)
