 * Symbol voting keep.svg This is a really wonderful new article with an interesting hook that is fully compliant with length. The article is new enough (expanded) and long enough, QPQ is done, no copyvio or close para is detected (mathematical formulas don't count) and there is no image associated with the nomination. Article is NPOV and all other policy criteria check. As to the citability, there is an inline citation to the Australasian Journal of Combinatorics, with which I am not familiar and have never before heard of; it is, apparently, a scholarly journal published by the University of Queensland. I'm not 100% sure the UQ is a reputable-enough institution to accept journals published under their sponsorship prima facia, but I'm not familiar enough with their reputation in maths, so GF this to that and the French source.
