 * Symbol voting keep.svg Article has been promoted to GA recently, is long enough, and meets policy on citations, plagiarism and neutrality. The hooks are all referenced in-line and short, but I find ALT2 the most interesting. Unfortunately ALT2 has the shakiest citation (the machine-translated German doesn't explicitly say he was eligible), but there are other sources that back it up (and please do add them to the article). QPQ has been completed.  Sounder Bruce  21:10, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
