  • With the proviso that Earwig is running in degraded mode now due to Too Many Requests, no problems found with copyvios.
  • None of the items under WP:GAFAIL apply.
  • Per MOS:LEAD, the lead section should summarize the rest of the article, not introduce new material.
    • "application programming interface (API)" is not mentioned in the article (at least not by that name)
    • The lead is heavy on material from History and almost completely ignores the Background, "Mechanism, and Privacy concerns sections, so the most important points from those sections should be added.
  • Prose:
    • became an official Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) draft no need to say "official"
    • The header was meant ... User-Agents became ... this information is used The change of tense here is jarring.
    • In 2020, Google announced their intention to deprecate user-agent (UA) strings ... This is a statement about what happened in 2020 cited to a paper published in 2023. Are you sure that's the right reference?
    • Brave also raised concerns about the initial proposal ... Likewise, this is a source published in 2019 talking ostensibly talking about events that happened in 2020.
    • As of May 2024, over 75% of all traffic on the internet supports client hints It's now September; are there any more recent sources for this?
    • Since the adoption of Client Hints by major browsers you should say which browsers support it.
    • overall adoption of Client Hints across the internet was low this seems at odds with earlier statements like over 75% of all traffic on the internet supports client hints
