 * Symbol confirmed.svg New enough, created day of nomination. More than four times long enough.  The article is neutrally written.  Each paragraph has multiple inline citations.  No paraphrasing or other copyvio issues detected.  The hook is within formatting guidelines, and is reasonably interesting.  The fact is directly attributable to the (online) source, cited directly after stated fact.  The image source confirms the Creative Commons license, and displays decently at small resolution.  This article is ready for mainpage exposure.   78.26  (spin me / revolutions) 17:57, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
