Improved to Good Article status by Reidgreg (talk). Self-nominated at 15:37, 16 May 2018 (UTC).

Nominated within a day of achieving GA. More than long enough. Referenced to the hilt. No bio vio's. No OR. Neutral. QPQ does not apply. Either version of the hook is good, but the original is more to the point and hooky. Hook is topical, is negative but does not dwell on it and IMO highly likely to cause a reader to want more information. Gog the Mild (talk) 22:54, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
