 * Symbol question.svg Expanded well enough in general, but I worry about the Ethiopia section with its expand section tag. The hooks are cited and the article is long enough, but I have this hanging concern about the Ethiopia section. If that is resolved this will be an excellent article for DYK. I personally prefer ALT1 as the hook. Raymie (t • c) 03:10, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
