 * Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Goldberg-Coxeter construction
 * Symbol confirmed.svg This article has been expanded, is long enough, and within policy (Copyvio brings up 0%, which is great!). The hook is short enough, interesting, accurate and neutral. You have reviewed another DYK and have not included image. This is fine with me and all good to go! Soaper1234 - talk  00:12, 23 December 2017 (UTC)
