• I will review this.

• Expanded about 20x to ~5000 characters
• Cited inline, to a number of reliable sources
• Article appears sufficiently complete (no screaming holes)
• Hook sufficiently brief, interesting, taking accuracy on good faith to offline source
• Only image is PD
• QPQ completed

• I will check for source-article agreement and paraphrasing later (If I get waylayed by school, I will be back at the end of the week) Chris857 (talk) 03:45, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

• Question, does [1] display as a jumbled mess of unicode to you? It appears to me as "-Ave�â�TËa�ÛeÀ�ÒŒ!?(Œ)�ŽžŠÜJ��…�7õ¨˜" on for dozens of lines. It appears this way in Chrome and IE 8. Chris857 (talk) 03:54, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

• Yeah, for me too. It was there when I started editing the article, and it's a legitimate page in the hierarchy of an RS website; I left it hoping it was just an error on my end, or something temporary that would fix itself (but it has not). Let me know if you want a copy of the sources. Guettarda (talk) 04:28, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
