 * Symbol question.svg Created Jan 4-nom Jan 10/ new enough. 3190 char/long enough. Neutral. No apparent close paraphrasing. No image. No apparent previous DYK involvement, QPQ not required. Two unsourced sentences "The great majority of this project's £1 million costs ..." and " The Official printed Guide and the Double CD" require citations. Hook is under 200 char, interesting and cited by a verifying source immediately following the claim. (Though not required for DYK approval can you lose one of the "eventually"s in this sentence ..."the countries eventually included eventually reached"...) Ping me when the citations are completed and I'll be glad to clear it. Interesting piece, thanks for submitting it. SusunW (talk) 02:58, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
