 * Symbol confirmed.svg The article is new enough, long enough, and the hook is formatted correctly, although it might be a little wordy (but is still within the 200 character limit). I verified that the hook is cited to the source provided in the article. The nominator did a QPQ and the image is okay (although you can't tell those are ducks unless you enlarge the image).--  十  八  21:38, 27 April 2017 (UTC)
