• Article is long enough and new enough. It is properly (and rather nicely) cited.
• All hooks are properly cited. ALT3 is a trifle long at 185 characters; the other hooks are all fewer than 150 characters. Any would serve nicely for DYK.
• Random checks reveal no copyright vios.
• This is DYK ready.Georgejdorner (talk) 02:19, 4 November 2014 (UTC)
