 * Pictogram voting keep.svg I'm not sure that I've ever done a DYK review on an article that was already a GA when I got there, but I will say that as far as I can tell, this meets all the DYK requirements. I'm giving this a AGF check, as I don't have access to any of the sources, and therefore can't spot check for close paraphrasing. That being said, you're something of an institution on this project, so I'm not concerned.  S ven M anguard   Wha?  21:58, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I was rather surprised that it's been reviewed already as well. But I'm not complaining.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 22:20, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
