 * Symbol confirmed.svg New article. New enough, long enough, well cited article; hook is directly cited to several sources. As to off line sources,  I WP:AGF, as I don't have the book.  I note that this editor is a prolific DYK contributor, and may be implicitly relied upon.  DYK QPQ is confirmed. No close paraphrasing or copyright issues.  IMHO the quality of the hook is very high: interesting, hooky and capturing the essence of the article. 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 21:48, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
