I added "Korean warhorse" because I think we need to emphasize she was a warhorse. Hope this is okay. Thanks for the nom!PumpkinSky talk 00:24, 30 July 2013 (UTC)
Nominator is OK with hook change. Montanabw^(talk) 18:19, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Note: the history is a bit confusing since I history merged the sandbox draft with the existing article. It was a 5x expansion though. Mark Arsten (talk) 02:47, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Comment: Tweaks to hook OK with nominator per discussion at article talk. I cut a couple words and changed one for flow. Montanabw^(talk) 23:58, 31 July 2013 (UTC)

New enough, long enough, exciting enough, etc. Don't know about this QPQ; I'll leave that for the promoter to decide. Drmies (talk) 00:48, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

Nominations that are not self-nominations do not need a QPQ. SL93 (talk) 13:13, 1 August 2013 (UTC)
