Coverage for Engineer Fortress (Server-sided Mod)

So, I've been wanting to suggest this as an article for Engineer Fortress, following the Mod notability guidelines. This community-created server-sided mod is quite interesting, so let's go over a few bullet points:

The servers on TF2C/TF2 Gold Rush don't matter, as we won't cover mods that other games would use so all entries including that are disqualified immediately. As for the others:
Do these servers run it simultaneously? Nemu's seems to have shut down, so BangerzTF was created which runs one server at the same time as Uncle Dane does.
I can tell that outside of already-established channels, it's not a very popular thing to watch or make videos about.
I think it's a good contender, but also I would have to see if BangerzTF's servers are actually populated that often. 50k players is a good amount, but it's also counting people that connected once and left after 10 seconds which makes it not a very good view of the popularity.

Nemu's is shutdown (there was talks about bringing it back but it didn't happened), but BangerzTF and Uncletopia's 1000 Uncles run simultaneously, separately. I don't really play on Uncletopia, but I have them favorited and it's usually pretty populated. BangerzTF is often populated (I play nearly everyday), I have been playing there for basically a year of two, and I often see new people. BangerzTF happened due to Nemu's shutdown (an update happened in the game that broke the mod and went offline since then). I'm trying to visit the GameTracker's website for Bangerz, but I'm getting 503 errors: https://www.gametracker.com/search/?sort=2&page=1&search_by=online_player&using=username&game=_all&loc=_all&x=33&y=11&per_page=50&searchipp=50&searchpge=320813&order=DESC, I'd assume that the GameTracker page has some juicy statistics in regards to the popularity that could help in regards to its notability. Perhaps Engineer Fortress is not too "stream friendly" or video-worthy, but actually playing it is a different beast, also not everyone who plays games streams or makes videos about them, so there's that too.

Here's an Imgur album showcasing my Favorites tab, where I have all the Engineer Fortress related servers added (you can see the Windows taskbar for the date and time it was took, GMT -3): https://imgur.com/a/kohKhz4.
Due to the size of the images, you'll have to right-click and Open Image to view in full. The album will be updated every once in a while.
GameTracker is also back, so we can see information on some of the servers. Information for the One Thousand Uncles servers are not available:
* Bangerz.TF Engineer Fortress || 24 HUMANS MAX
* Bangerz.TF 1000 Uncles
* -EotL- Engineer Fortress | NO ADS
