Keep. I do not see a deletion rationale, nor can I come up with one myself. The information in the article is cited quite thoroughly, and it's written neutrally for the purpose of informing the reader. It's not an "instruction manual"; the closest comparison I can see is that it's about a technical subject. Perhaps it is more detailed and boring than the average reader would find interesting, but Wikipedia is not a supermarket tabloid, so we do not have to worry about how many eyeballs an article brings in to justify its existence. jp×g 21:40, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
