General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Bit skimpy but eligible at 1,903 characters. First paragraph needs a cite, or to be merged with the second one to supply sourcing. Otherwise, core criteria are satisfied. "Dinosaurs" and "the White House" together make a clever and almost irresistible hook.Georgejdorner (talk) 23:59, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
