Hi 48JCL - thank you so much for starting the review! I have corrected the issues with citation formatting, used IABot to add archive links, filled in the missing data for all sources and made the date formatting consistent.

Regarding the TechCrunch source, the piece is listed as a "Featured Article" on their webpage and is a review of incidences of protestware in the open source space. As far as I can tell it does not draw from any promotional material. TC is known for having a lot of routine business and PR-esque coverage but I felt that this piece was a good example of the left-pad incident being cited as a precursor to the protestware trend, and works for verifiability purposes. Let me know what you think. Best, ~Liance^talk 22:43, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Liance, sourcing seems to be ok. Check 48JCLTALK 16:31, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

@Liance I’ve addressed some last issues, so I will pass this article. Great job! 48JCLTALK 16:47, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
