New enough (promoted to Good Article status on 20 January 2016), long enough (7,211 characters "readable prose size"), fully referenced. Hook fine, verified against online source. ( AGF on offline ALT hook but much prefer the original hook.) Image on Commons with appropriate licence. No QPQ done Hawkeye7 (talk) 09:20, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
