Article - created new on 14 March, so new enough; 3528 characters of readable prose, so long enough; neutral; at least one inline citation to every paragraph; no copy vios detected using earwig/duplication detector; assessed as start class.
Hook - within length criteria at 156 characters; correctly formatted; correctly cited/supported by refs #10 and #11 in '2012/13 season' section; and reasonably interesting.
No QPQ necessary as not self nom; image is Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 2.0 Generic.
