New enough, long enough. QPQ done. Paraphrasing is fine. Exceptionally well-researched and fully-cited; I was going to make the minor comment that I had to take this page on AGF as a RS for the PFC-to-BFC merger under WP:PUBLISHED, but then the clipping at the end of the sentence confirmed it. Neutral and clear throughout.
- Hook is under the length limit and interesting to a general public. It's reasonably neutral, although it comes off as a little conspiratorial out of context. I hate to be perfectionist, but is there a chance you'd like to change the second "used in" to "applied to", the way it is in the article? FourViolas (talk) 01:33, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review. Sure, your suggestion is fine, but "applying a technique" sounds a little strange. How about "employing a technique"?
