  • Not a review, and I do my QPQs oldest first so would not get to this any time soon (but would not object to any other editor jumping in ahead of me); if I saw that hook in prep, I'd truncate it at "methane" per WP:DYKTRIM.--Launchballer 20:45, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
  • I will be taking this one; please give me a mo' ‍  PSA 🏕️  (talk) 11:31, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: No need for a QPQ considering the amt of noms. Okay hook, but I concur with Launchballer above about truncating it. I found some issues with WP:CLOP and source-text integrity from a spotcheck of ~10% of the sources, but they aren't so egregious.

A solid GAN review tells me that great care was put into this article, but to be safe, I spotchecked ten sources (refer to this version for the ref numbers).

13, good; 25 doesn't say the studies occured in Germany and Israel; 38, no issues; 50, no mention of developed nations or wet bed combustion but will AGF the offline source cited beside it does---please confirm as well. 60 (not open access on my end? no issues otherwise though); 71, no issues; 85, no issues; 97, no issues; 108, no issues; 120 has close paraphrasing issues so please fix this.

A quick glance at the reflist suggests there are no blatantly unreliable RS, and the article was DYK-nommed at the right window of time. The prose is ok for a GA. Ran Earwig for copyvio issues but no extreme red flags. @InformationToKnowledge, please ping me once everything has been addressed. ‍  PSA 🏕️  (talk) 11:07, 20 April 2024 (UTC) 12:33, 29 April 2024‎ (UTC)

Thank you for addressing @InformationToKnowledge. I think all my issues have been addressed, and this is good to go unless someone else objects . By the way, you replied at the article talk page, not here. ‍  PSA 🏕️  (talk) 01:42, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
Making a couple notes before promoting. One of the cited sources says "sulfur",[1] but if you click the linked text it's clear they're talking about sulfates as the hook says.[2] Also, as suggested by others above, I'll cut the hook at "methane?" Rjjiii (talk) 06:01, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
