 * I'm not very familiar with the current DYK nomination processes, and I hope I'm typing in the right place. If the article is wanted for DYK I think the first of the three suggested hooks is the strongest.  Tim riley  talk    18:04, 21 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article recently promoted to GA, neutral, well referenced, and I could detect no copyvio. I personally prefer ALT1, it is more concise, and is confirmed by an online source with a citation at the end of the relevant sentence. --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 12:15, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
