 * Fivefold expanded, long enough, and within policy. Image is fine with proper license per this. Default hook: fine and cited. ALT1 hook: I think the words "in brightness" are missing in the hook text. Ref. 18 which cites part of the hook fact needs proper formatting (at least title misssing). ALT 2 hook: needs inline citation. Ready to go with default hook. For ALT1/2 hooks additional work is required as mentioned above. bamse (talk) 17:39, 15 August 2014 (UTC)
