Article length is fine and posted by due date. Hook is interesting, referenced and verified. Text is neutral and no copy vio noted. QPQ done. Good to go.Nvvchar. 07:20, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

This may work well as an April Fools hook. sst^flyer 10:21, 22 September 2015 (UTC)

April Fools Day is too far away. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 08:44, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

How is that a problem? sst^flyer 08:47, 24 September 2015 (UTC)

I think the policy is to limit retention of hooks to a six weeks maximum period. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:36, 24 September 2015 (UTC)

Up to you, but the article need only have been created/expanded/brought to GA in the year immediately preceding the April 1 on which it will appear. They've already started posting next year's hooks at Wikipedia:April Fool's Main Page/Did You Know. — Maile (talk) 21:20, 26 September 2015 (UTC)

@Maile66: I would prefer to run the hook now while the article is fresh. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:49, 27 September 2015 (UTC)

How about running this on Halloween as part of a set of DYKs specifically for that day? See the proposal at WT:DYK#Halloween hooks?. Prioryman (talk) 11:11, 29 September 2015 (UTC)

That's OK with me. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:18, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
