QPQ done. New enough and long enough at the time of nomination. Plagiarism spot check manually revealed no cause for concerns. (Sources actually stronger in making conclusions than article, such as the statement about probably lower because they were probably having dinner.) Both images have acceptable copyright tags. Hooked fact appears in article and is supported by source. Hook is interesting and neutral enough. Article appears neutral enough to some one not overly familiar with the region.
Article not fully supported by inline citations.
Offline sources support article text and were not plagiarised in writing article. --LauraHale (talk) 10:16, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Clean up fact tag. --LauraHale (talk) 10:16, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Pulled that ref out in editing yesterday afternoon with a plan to add & refine to that end section but was distracted & left it hanging. It's been restored so looks like all paras are covered now. Thank you, Dawnseeker2000 14:10, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Good to go. --LauraHale (talk) 20:07, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
