 * Symbol confirmed.svg Expansion checks out, appears to be reasonably complete and well-referenced. Hook is in the article and referenced. I rewrote the hook to include the article name and the location. Image is appropriate and suitably licensed. QPQ review does not appear necessary as this is the nominator's first nomination. Good to go! Constantine  ✍  13:00, 3 October 2015 (UTC)
