QPQ: None required.

Overall: to sell 200'000 in its inaugural issue is remarkable feat, (1 lakh are 100'000, had to look it up, too) it is neutral and no copy bio issues as per Earwig. ALT1 and ALT2 (AGF on the sourcing) might also be good. I prefer ALT0 as I see this as a remarkable feat, ALT1 is a bit on sex sells, but of course we are also encouraged to see how many page views we get here. ALT2 is maybe a bit too specific, at least for me it is. Bottom line, the DYK is good to go, and I leave it the prepper which question we use. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 01:56, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
