  • Article created 31 October; article exceeds minimum length; hook source is behind paywall so I will AGF on that - article supports hook and other sources such as this one support it; Earwig detects no copyright vios and a quick check on a couple of the accessible sources reveals none; article is well written and impeccably sourced; I find the hook really interesting; QPQ carried out - Dumelow (talk) 19:35, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
