5x expanded by Casliber (talk). Self-nominated at 13:34, 23 February 2016 (UTC).

Fivefold expansion carried out in timeframe, but after a minor copy edit to remove redundancy it's a touch under the character limit. The hook is succinct and checks out with the source. It's not particularly catchy but I didn't see anything more exciting in the article. The article is neutral and adequately supported by references. QPQ is completed. The image is attractive, under a suitable licence and appears in the article. Earwig found no copyright violations and I spotted no close paraphrasing of the major sources.
