 * Symbol voting keep.svg 5x expansion verified. New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced. As most sources are offline or foreign-language, unable to check for close paraphrasing. Image is pd. No QPQ needed for nominator with less than 5 DYKs. The first two hooks are both hooky; I struck ALT2 because it takes the focus off him. I shortened the first hook to take out the foreign words and translation, giving it more punch. Both hooks are AGF and cited inline. Good to go. Congratulations on an impressive DYK debut!
