  • The article was new enough at the time of its nomination, having been created on March 2. It's definitely long enough. It appears to be within policy, with a good neutral tone, and little chance of plagiarism or close paraphrasing ("violation unlikely" according to Earwig's tool). Citations are well distributed throughout. The proposed image looks fine at 100×100, is properly formatted, and looks to be out of copyright. However, there's a problem with the hook. I'm currently getting a "page unavailable" notice from the source that is supposed to be citing the hook fact ([1]), and for some reason it's the only source in the article that isn't formatted with all the usual fields included in a citation template --- in other words, it's a bare URL, and that doesn't fly. So, that source will need to be fixed before I can okay the nomination. — AJDS talk 11:16, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
  • Thank you, AJDS, for reviewing this nomination. I have fixed the issue you described. It is odd that that bare Wilson URL showed up! It was a live link at the time I put it in the article. ♥Golf (talk) 13:07, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
  • No problem at all. With that issue addressed (the new source checks out and is properly cited), the article looks good to go. — AJDS talk 13:14, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
