QPQ: Done.

Overall: The article is solid and well-sourced. I prefer ALT2, as the first two sources are too technical and not particularly interesting. Spotchecked sources 3 and 14 and found no issues, however, the websites are missing from the citation templates for source 3 (The Straits Times) and source 12 (The Business Times), and it should be added back, Replicative Cloverleaf. Earwig shows no copyvio. No QPQ is needed. —👑PRINCE of EREBOR📜 14:34, 27 February 2025 (UTC)

Thanks. I've corrected grammar mistakes in ALT0 ("a enviornmentally-friendly ethos" to "an enviornmentally-friendly ethos") and ALT2 ("a exhibition" to "an exhibition") and also fixed the citation templates issues in the article (along with making links to source's pages consistent).
