Moved to mainspace by Dumelow (talk). Self-nominated at 06:47, 20 October 2018 (UTC).
Article was moved to mainspace within the last seven days, is over the required prose size. Scores a little high on the copyvio tool but there's a sizable quote which is responsible for that. Hooks are both cited inline within the article and attributed to reliable sources. QPQ provided, good to go. Kosack (talk) 08:00, 20 October 2018 (UTC)
