Overall: (Offline references accepted in good faith.) Great work, Centehua! I know that this nomination does not meet the "newness" requirement (it was moved to the mainspace more than seven days before it was nominated for DYK), but this is Centehua's 2nd DYK nomination and it is a really good article, so I would like to ask to waive that requirement in this case. I really enjoyed reading the article. I've added the image to the DYK nomination and also provided an alternative hook that might be slightly more interesting. Once again, great work!
