This article is a newly promoted GA and is long enough and nominated in time. I have struck ALT2 as being a bit trivial but the other two hooks are acceptable, with inline citations for the hook facts. Both images are appropriately licensed and I prefer the head. The article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:04, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
