  • The article was moved to the mainspace on 31 March 2017, so it is new enough. It is long enough and neutral. There do not appear to be copyright violations. The article uses inline citations. Reference number 1 seems paywalled, so I assume good faith. The hook is cited, and the image is freely licensed. The QPQ is done. Gulumeemee (talk) 02:33, 7 April 2017 (UTC)
