Article is new enough and long enough. Spot check does not reveal any copyright violations. Theres a few one sentence headings / paragraphs, the article would be much better if they were merged or expanded. The article is full of acronyms and I've certainly struggled to review without previous knowledge of the subject, but that doesn't actually fail the DYK criteria. Hook appears sourced to an offline source, will AGF on that. QPQ done. Looks like this is G2G on the main hook. Worm^TT(talk) 16:56, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Have gone back through article, tried to match acronym usage to MOS, and pruned as many acronyms as possible. Many thanks to the Worm for the observation that led to this revision.Georgejdorner (talk) 06:19, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
