• The article is new enough, long enough and of high quality. The offline source, provided via Google Books and incorporated in the article as citation 13, makes for an interesting hook for a general audience. No copyvio issues to be had. QPQ present. Looks good to me. Raymie (t • c) 23:59, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
