 * Symbol possible vote.svg Article is new enough and long enough, QPQ is fine. However, the article is written in quite clumsy English throughout. I don't even understand the final part of the hook suggested above. I think the article would need copyediting, and a new hook proposing. Relentlessly (talk) 22:43, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Relentlessly, As per your suggestion, copy editing and new hook proposing are made. -- Anton  Talk  18:05, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, Anton, but I still didn't understand large parts of the article. I've gone through it fairly comprehensively now and rephrased, expanded and added citations as appropriate. But I've probably done too much editing to do the DYK review now. Relentlessly (talk) 22:45, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the expansion work. Shall we go for the ALT1? -- Anton Talk  04:04, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm very happy with it, but I don't want to approve the nomination because I've now done quite a lot of work to the article. Relentlessly (talk) 21:43, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Ok, let's wait for someone. -- Anton Talk  11:39, 14 February 2015 (UTC)
