 * Symbol question.svg New, long enough, within policy, no copyvio found via tool, no QPQ necessary as outside nom. Image confirmed via OTRS. Hook doesn't have an immediate ref in article (see 3b), and additionally much of the article is unsourced. Please ping me if I don't respond. czar  ♔  19:13, 23 October 2013 (UTC)
