Overall: @Epicgenius: Good article as usual. Should nom for GA. Waiting for QPQ. I like all of these hooks but the first is funny and would likely catch peoples eye the most. UPDATE: Giving Epicgenius credit for the work he did on 2023 New York City parking garage collapse - sufficient for QPQ imho MaxnaCarta (talk) 03:57, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review MaxnaCarta. Nonetheless, I'd like to provide a QPQ anyway, which I will do shortly. Epicgenius (talk) 13:19, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
