 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article created on November 13 and promoted to GA on November 19? How does that happen? It takes my articles months to get a review. Anyway, the article is substantial at 12742 characters and well cited, so it appears on first glance to deserve GA status. Citation 9 backs up the main proposed hook. There's a whole section on "Biocentric individualism" and "Two-level utilitarianism", with sources, so ALT 1 is good too. QPQ done. Good to go. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:47, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
