 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article is new enough, having been created and nominated on 18 June, and long enough at more than 2,000 characters. It meets the policy criteria of neutrality, sourcing of every paragraph and no copyright problems. All three hooks are suitable and sourced; personally I think the main hook is simplest and best. Finally, QPQ has been completed so I think this is ready to go. AtHomeIn神戸 (talk) 06:22, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
