Created by Philafrenzy (talk). Nominated by Edwardx (talk) at 09:46, 15 September 2014 (UTC).
Article was long enough when nominated, and is definitely long enough at present. Hook is 152 characters, so it's okay. I spot checked via Googling for copyright vios, with no duplication showing. However, I also spot-checked some quotations, with no match showing; due to lack of URLs in cites, I could not verify veracity of quotes, including the one in the hook. I do not know how to check image copyright, etcetera; however, I doubt the image will show well at 100x100 pixels resolution.
- As I am returning to DYK after some years away, I will recommend a more experienced editor sign off on this nomination.Georgejdorner (talk) 14:46, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- The image won't be used anyway as it is fair use. Philafrenzy (talk) 14:49, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- Having committed several reviews since this one, I suppose I have become the more experienced editor. With the graphics question settled, this article is DYK material. I do believe the original hook is best.Georgejdorner (talk) 03:39, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
