 * Symbol question.svg New article is 7,740 characters long and was completed on the same day as nomination. Duplication detector check of online sources  reveal no close paraphrasing issues (AGF all other sources that are offline and waiving direct quotes).  Article is well-sourced.  Hook is 128 characters long (under 200 character max.) and is interesting.  Ref 3 (verifying the hook) is a reliable online source from USA Today.  Only a QPQ is left to be done before I'll give a tick. —Bloom6132 (talk) 06:27, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
