General eligibility:

Policy compliance:

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: Yes
  • Interesting: Yes
  • Other problems: Yes
QPQ: None required.

Overall: No images, QPQ also unnecessary. Claim is properly cited, and mentioned multiple times throughout the article. No copy-vio issues upon spotchecks and the source is reliable. Article was recently promoted to GA after a lengthy review, so congratulation are in order for that.

The source's quote is specifically In addition, more than 1.2 million new cases are diagnosed and global prostate cancer-related deaths exceed 350,000 annually, making it one of the leading causes of cancer-associated death in men

I could maybe see a close paraphrasing issue here but I'll chalk it up to WP:LIMITED since these are simple facts that are hard to reword. I made a few minor tweaks to the lead and to the article to massage out an inconsistency, please review here: [1]. Passing DYK, congrats!! 🏵️Etrius ( Us) 00:45, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for the swift review, this nom passed through much faster than my last.
Fun fact: I actually came up with the current hook early on in the GAN process after seeing the diagnosis and death rate in the infobox, without even seeing the actual paragraph until after the article was promoted to GA. — Mugtheboss (talk) 20:22, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
