Created by Obiwankenobi (talk), Drmies (talk). Nominated by Obiwankenobi (talk) at 07:16, 11 June 2013 (UTC).


 * Note - this is my first DYK, please be gentle, I haven't done this before. --Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 07:20, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Well you did good. :) Everything is suitably cited, the nomination came within the five days and the article meets the size requirements. The only very minor niggle was that the article was classified as a stub - however due to the referencing and general size, it wasn't actually a stub. So I changed it to start class and removed the stub tag and category from the article. I also thought of another suitable category and added that. Anyway, this one is good to go for DYK.

 * ok thanks - I'm still hoping to get an image from the publisher. How long before this posts to the front page? --Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 21:10, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Could be any length of time depending on the number of other approved hooks. But if you want this placed on hold whilst you see if you can arrange an image, then just say. Miyagawa (talk) 22:22, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
 * ok, yes can we put on hold? An image really makes this story. Just need to sort permissions - i'll let you know here as soon as done.--Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 00:37, 12 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Since Obi was kind enough to list me as co-author, I've done a QPQ review, at Template:Did you know nominations/Mirza Adeeb. Obi, have a look at my commentary there (for next time!), and the few edits I made to the article. As it happens, I had to turn it down for now; you'll see in my recent contributions that I notified the two nominators with a template. Drmies (talk) 00:19, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
