 * Symbol confirmed.svg This orphaned nomination has just been transcluded. It was originally nominated within 7 days of creation. It is long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, and no close paraphrasing seen. Hook ref verified and cited inline. No QPQ needed for nominator with less than 5 DYK credits. Good to go.
