 * Symbol confirmed.svg Happy to review someone else's Star Trek nomination, since I have access to all the offline sources. I can confirm the hook facts as stated, and I did see any copy issues in my spot checks. The article is newly expanded from a redirect, and easily meets the size requirements. Article is fully cited - I figure that the character history is effectively a plot section so doesn't necessarily require cites (the information is effectively cited by the episodes themselves). Good to go for September 8th. Miyagawa (talk) 12:04, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
