- Good article article, long enough, well-referenced, neutrally written with no significant copyvios. Another website appears to have copied from Wikipedia. The hook is cited-inline in the article and is interesting. The image used in the hook is freely licensed, used in the article, and easily discernible at 100px. A QPQ has been done by the nominator.
