Honestly, this is beyond good already. I struggle sometimes to come up with suggestions to improve, so I'm sorry for the bland and disinteresting comments on this one! The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 20:30, 11 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

@The Rambling Man: Thanks for the comments. I've resolved all of the issues now. It's really no problem (I think reviewers might be staying away from my articles for the backlog review because they're not problematic enough!). After a while, writing good articles tends to become easier. Epicgenius (talk) 21:17, 11 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
