 * Thank you, that's a much better hook. Mackensen (talk) 12:12, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article is new (August 18, 2014), long enough (more than 3000 characters of prose) and within policy. Hooks (default and ALT1) are well formatted, interesting and cited inline (AGF on offline source). Image is free and used in article. Quality at small size is IMO ok, but if better images are available (for this or other DYK articles) that would be preferable. Good to go. bamse (talk) 13:19, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
