• ... that Perceval, the Story of the Grail by Chrétien de Troyes is considered by literary historians to be the earliest example of the narrative technique of entrelacement?

• Source: Frappier, Jean (1936). Étude sur la 'Mort le roi Artu', roman du XIIIᵉ siècle : dernière partie du Lancelot en prose (in French). Geneva. p. 348. "Au Moyen Âge, l'emploi du procédé [de l'entrelacement] ainsi que la formule de transition rudimentaire (Le conte cesse de parler d'un tel et parle maintenant de tel autre), ne semble pas antérieur au Perceval de Chrétien de Troyes."

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith Interesting:

QPQ: None required.

Overall: New, interesting, seems to be no copyvios, and with a source accepted AGF (offline). Two minor quibbles: one is that only Frappier is cited here and it seems to be his opinion alone, rather than a citation indicating that more than just him are saying that many literary historians say so. Could we consider:

ALT1: ... that the 12th-century romance Perceval, the Story of the Grail by Chrétien de Troyes is one of the earliest examples of entrelacement?

Feel free to suggest other rephrasing. Two is that the lede should describe, briefly, what entrelacement is. If it's cited in the body, you don't need to re-cite it in the lede, but it does need to be present for the passing reader. That said, great article and welcome to Wikipedia, InfernoHues!

@ThaesOfereode I've added a citation that shows that it is the opinion of literary historians in general and added to the lead somewhat (citation 3 and 4 are basically the same but I don't know how to combine them)
