Hi Vycl1994, review follows: article created 31 January; article (just) exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to what appear to be reliable sources; I didn't notice any overly close paraphrasing of the sources aside from common turns of phrase; hook is interesting, mentioned in article and backed up by the sources; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks good to me - Dumelow (talk) 22:49, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
- Apologies, Dumelow, a Powerball ticket of higher value was sold in Iowa in October 2018. The fact about Lohse, as stated above, is dated, and should be rephrased. I have updated the article itself. Kindly review the below. Vycl1994 (talk) 07:56, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
