 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article is new and long enough. It is neutral, uses inline citations and I don't see any copyright violations. The hook is interesting and cited in the Early years section with a reliable source. The image is in the public domain and used in the article. QPQ has been done. - JuneGloom07    Talk  00:37, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
