5x expanded by Ms Sarah Welch (talk). Self-nominated at 14:37, 18 October 2016 (UTC).


 * Symbol confirmed.svg This entry is good to go with the primary hook. The entry is new enough (DYK Check shows 5x expansion just since 10/16), long enough (>4000 characters, not a stub), and within policy (neutral, appropriately cited, no detected copyvios). The hook is interesting, neutral, short enough and supported by a citation right after the relevant fact in the article. QPQ done. The image is public domain and does appear in the article. I am not sure how the image will show up at 100x100, but I will leave that to the discretion of a promoter. EricEnfermero (Talk) 04:51, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
