Overall: New enough (moved from draftspace on 11 January); Long enough (4388 characters); Sourced and neutral; No plagiarism concerns (Earwig - 2.9%); Hook is cited and interesting; QPQ has been provided. The article seems to be in good shape apart from a few presentability issues:

The full form of DOC needs to be made known and wikilinked before using the abbreviation.
"and would communicate with it" -> "and would try to communicate with it", surely he wasn't actually communicating with a concrete statue.
"the island after DOC moved" -> "the island after the DOC moved" (same goes for every other mention of the DOC)
We do not know what "Friends of Mana" is, it needs to be elaborated that it is a volunteer group.
It'd be nice for readability if the second sentence of the "Background" section was split into two. AmateurHi$torian (talk) 11:13, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

@Panamitsu: I've made some minor edits to the page including adding author names to the citations; Seems good to go once the issues above get resolved. AmateurHi$torian (talk) 11:28, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
