  • Article is new, long enough, well-written and extensively sourced. No copyvio I can detect, and images are properly licensed. Hooks are interesting, AGF for offline sources, web source checks out. I'd go for the first hook myself, the idea of the Champ de Mai taking place in June is quite 'hooky'. Good to go - tres bien!
