Corruption in Afghanistan

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Great effort!. Expansion, quality, qpq, NPOV, reffing ok (sample checked). Earwig detects only Wikipedia mirrors and quotes. All hooks check out - ALTs 4 & 5 perhaps best. ALT2 is a tad off-topic. Lead is too long per WP:LEAD, otherwise should easily pass GA. Too many short paras lower down too. Johnbod (talk) 19:00, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
