 * Symbol confirmed.svg An extremely interesting article and hook by MopTop. Hook is correctly cited inline to the University Press of New England, an academic publisher. Article and hook are of appropriate length. QPQ done. Article and hook are NPOV. No obvious copyvio. Article is new enough, having been created just today. All other criteria pass. Image is not referenced in hook as per the DYK style guide (e.g. pictured), however, I can't seem to find that that necessarily precludes promotion sans picture.
