Keep nominator's rationale is something that can easily be resolved via talk page discussion, and not inherently a notability issue:

Wikipedia:AFDISNOTCLEANUP. A brief search yields a bunch of hits on this topic: [1][2][3] to showcase a few, though more can be found just via searching in News, Books, and Scholar. The topic is clearly notable, the article just needs work, which can be handled via regular editing. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 20:48, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply
