  • Article meets core policies and guidelines of the DYK criteria, long enough, neutral, cites sources with inline citations and appears to be free of copyright violations and plagiarism. Hook fact is accurate and cited with an inline citation in the article. Article should be ready for displaying on the main page, well done!♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 10:04, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
  • It's an impressive expansion work (7k to 93k of prose), but it needs a bit of a tidy up. The DPL bot just beat me to it posting the dab pages maintenance template, and that needs to be worked through. There are also numerous 'empty section' templates, which make this appear like a work in progress. The latter issue is as simple to resolve as commenting out those templates until the article is off the main page. Given that this is such a substantial article, I suggest that the nominator adds a photo or illustration to the nomination, as this is clearly lead hook material. If adding an image is beyond your capability, just post here which one to take, and somebody else will deal with it. Schwede66 19:28, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
The article is very much a work in progress but had to be nominated yesterday in order to be within the 5 day time slot. I don't know how to add an image at this stage of the nomination. The maintenance tags are not likely to be there long. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:18, 25 April 2013 (UTC)
No trouble with the tags. Re image, just state here which one you'd like to add, and I can see to it. Schwede66 06:15, 25 April 2013 (UTC)
I'm working on the tags now, and ran the dab tool last night, think they're all gone. How about Hokusai's Great Wave, then? (above) Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:34, 25 April 2013 (UTC)
I have added '(wave pictured)' to the hook. And given that my concerns above have now been addressed, I shall reinstate the big green tick. As I said before, this is certainly lead hook material. Schwede66 20:23, 25 April 2013 (UTC)
