Moved to mainspace by 2ReinreB2 (talk) and King Prithviraj II (talk). Nominated by 2ReinreB2 (talk) at 02:27, 12 January 2018 (UTC).
Article was moved to mainspace on January 7 and nominated on the 12th. The hook is supported by the source linked above, and the article has inline citations throughout (and certainly meets the length requirement). The Earwig tool doesn't reveal any issues (at most, there was a 23% match with this source, but it was mainly repetition of the title and a few quotations). The hook is interesting enough for me.
