General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.
Overall: Long enough at 10k+ characters. New enough: moved to mainspace Nov 30, nominated same day. All hooks are OK; on the talkpage I raised the factoid that became ALT2, which is my preference. Image was not included with DYK nom but the image in the infobox is excellent and is sourced to a Commons admin, Joe Mabel. QPQ on Lucas Ocampos checked. Neutrally written and extremely well sourced with no para outside of the lede uncited; in fact 50+ citations cover nearly every single sentence. No copyvio detected by Earwig's tool. Overall review is good to go Brianhe (talk) 18:38, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
