Thank you for making those changes on your end! I made one small change per MOS:NUMERAL, which specifies that numbers should not be mixed numeric/spelled out in the same sentence, and I think this looks good to go! — GhostRiver 16:03, 18 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
@GhostRiver: awesome! thank you so much again! theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (they/she) 16:14, 18 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

to FA

The main prohibitor on FA status is the lack of information about the plant's own operations. If reliable sources could note how many people the plant employs and serves, how it's constructed, and other notes about daily operation, it'd have a much better shot at FA. Right now, it leans too heavily on public image and controversy surrounding the plant (i.e. John Oliver), which is due weight, but it doesn't pass muster on a comprehensiveness requirement. theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/her) 00:36, 30 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
