Jordan Maron → CaptainSparklez – Clear WP:COMMONNAME. Maron is most commonly referred to by his online pseudonym "CaptainSparklez". By looking at the Google Trends results for both search terms, it can be seen that, over the last 12 months, "CaptainSparklez" has been searched worldwide far more than "Jordan Maron" has. This clearly shows that "CaptainSparklez" is the name that Maron is most commonly known by. Strugglehouse ( talk) 15:25, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

Will be doing this review. My first comment is that it appears the article has addressed all concerns that were brought up during the first review before it entered limbo state. As such, I don't think this review will take too long and will likely be fairly short, as several concerns were already addressed. Nonetheless, I'll take my own look at this shortly.

Two things. I was only able to find two issues with the article at all that could prevent it from being a GA. I will say that I am slightly disappointed in the lack of material for the Personal life section, but I don't think anything can be done about that. That's definitely a recommendation though if there is any material out there, though not required for this and my assumption is you've probably already tried based on how long you've been working on this. Not going to put this on hold since it's quite literally only two things.

QPQ: - Not done
Overall:
Hello @
Vortex3427: and thank you for getting this page to GA status! Going through each of the DYK requirements, your nomination checks out for all except the last one, which is your
WP:QPQ requirement. To cut down on DYK review backlog, any editor that has nominated "five or more articles" must do a DYK review of another's to have theirs approved going forward. This appears to be your fifth nomination, and you have left the "reviewed" section in your nomination blank. Once you complete this, I have no objections passing the nomination. Cheers!
