  • Wow to article length... Assuming article is at 5x now, expansion began 122 edits ago on July 4, 2012. New enough and long enough. Two images in the article and both have fair use rationales. Article reads as neutral enough. Plagiarism spot check here, here, here show no concerns. Blog sources are ones I beleive to be reliable. Hook appears in article and is supported by sources which when available support this fact. Hook is properly formatted, neutral and interesting.
  • Offline sources were not plagiarised and support cited text. --LauraHale (talk) 05:23, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

  • I am on vacation and signing in remotely. Did not get a chance to complete the QPQ before I left. May not have time to do a QPQ til I get back. I'd be ok with either holding this til I get back and do a QPQ or promoting it now with my vow to complete the QPQ when I get back. Thanks for the review. This is an article that turned up some pretty interesting stuff on fascinating person (at least to me) who previously had a pretty crappy article. Cbl62 (talk) 17:48, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Ooops. Yeah. On hold pending QPQ. --LauraHale (talk) 20:22, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

  • QPQ now complete. Thanks for being patient on this. Cbl62 (talk) 05:06, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
