 * Symbol voting keep.svg 5x expanded on 24 March – technically nominated a day or two late but I think we can be lenient since the nomination is for a new student editor with no previous DYKs. The article is well referenced with no close paraphrasing from the online sources. Hook is interesting and cited to an offline book so AGF. QPQ is done. 97198 (talk) 10:45, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg is this page stable? The recent history shows heavy additions and subtractions from the text by the page creator. Yoninah (talk) 22:56, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
 * I came across the article by chance and thought it might encourage the creator to have it at DYK. Most student articles seem to be created but then forgotten as the student passes on to other projects. Time will tell in this case, but with Easter coming up, I guess the article will be stable.
