On reviewing this article- it is new enough, long enough, cites a range of sources (which includes some offline, some blog and startup news pages) which have all published articles on this topic over a period spanning 20 years. The article is neutral, does not need to be BLP-compliant, and appears to be copyvio-free. There is an image on the page which appears appropriate. QPQ credit is listed. I can see no issues with the article. The language from both hooks is from articles in Ski Magazine. Both hooks are interesting, but I prefer the ALT1 hook which is much more specific and this appears appropriate given that the sources are all from one continent. I should note that I have had a long break since my last DYK review. Drchriswilliams (talk) 03:41, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- @buidhe: I can't find "obsessive-compulsives" in the cited source, could you quote the longer sentence? theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 16:01, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  - theleekycauldron It's at the bottom of the sidebar in the middle of the page "Maintaining a website he founded (turns-all-year.com) for obsessive-compulsives like himself" (t · c) buidhe 22:35, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    - gotcha, thanks :) i'm a little nervous about using "obsessive-compulsives" without a hedge word, but I don't mind another promoter taking it. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 22:06, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
