Article is new enough (moved from a sandbox) and long enough and within policy (neutral, cites sources). Was unable to check all the sources, but the ones I did check showed no signs of anything like close paraphrasing, copyvio or plagiarism. The tool only finds two previous DYKs, so no need for a QPQ review. No image review needed. Hook is supported by the article content. Ames is still living, but the hook no more focus on him than the article does (unsurprisingly). Fascinating article. Am marking this as good to go: . Carcharoth (talk) 00:44, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
