 * Symbol possible vote.svg While the article technically meets DYK guidelines on newness, length, sourcing, plagiarism, QPQ, etc., it doesn't seem that comprehensive: there's no information about the township's early history, for example. There are also some writing issues: "square km" could be abbreviated, "#172" could instead be written as 172th or something to that effect, and contractions like "hasn't" which is discouraged in articles. These issues however should be relatively easy to fix. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 13:14, 16 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I made 3 of the minor changes you suggested. On the topic of early history, I'm afraid this is a difficult request as before the boom this place was literally a postage stamp sized town with a few buses, only known as a reference point for getting to the Mausoleum of Genghis to its south. So I leave it to future contributors to add early history. Muzzleflash (talk) 14:34, 16 October 2017 (UTC)
 * In that case, Symbol voting keep.svg. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 15:14, 16 October 2017 (UTC)
