 * Symbol possible vote.svg Just pending a QPQ review. Date and length are Ok. No website based copyvio . AGF on offline sources and the hook source. The photograph has a release tag but appears to be a scan of a print or magazine photograph (jpeg scan artifact). It's of high enough resolution with no copyright marks and there is not a duplicate on Google Images. I have no reason not to believe the uploader had rights to the image.

 * - I've only done one DYK before so forgive me for posting this here for clarification, but I thought WP:DYK said articles should be new? This article is over a month old, which doesn't seem to fall within the "5 days" criteria.  Is there something I'm overlooking?  I'm trying to get an article together for DYK and I just want to make sure I understand what I'm doing. - SudoGhost 17:58, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
 * It was moved from the editor's sandbox into Wikipedia mainspace on January 19. You can start an article in userspace, DYK 5 day count starts after it is formally moved to mainspace. Froggerlaura  ribbit 20:42, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Ah, I didn't know that. Thanks for that clarification, that's certainly good to know. - SudoGhost 22:40, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
