 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article is new enough and long enough and doesn't seem to be copied from the cited sources or from elsewhere. It's neutrally worded and well cited. (Though as a minor point, I don't see where the Carr article supports the claim of three months' preparation. Did I miss it or is this a mistake that needs to be fixed?)  The hook is appropriate and its claims are supported by the Economist article.  QPQ is completed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Psychonaut (talk • contribs) 14:52, 2 January 2015‎ (UTC)

 * Symbol question.svg Maybe I'm reading this wrong but I can't find any mention of The Guardian in the The Economist. The author seems to be W. W. (writing from Houston) rather than W. W. Houston? Fuebaey (talk) 22:23, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
 * , you're right. The in-text attribution was off. Fixed czar ⨹   23:17, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Could you fix the hook and the rest of that paragraph? Fuebaey (talk) 18:30, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
