2x expanded and sourced (BLP) by Dainomite (talk). Self nominated at 14:09, 11 April 2014 (UTC).

Note: this is not eligible for the 2x BLP exception because it was not unsourced prior to expansion. But it doesn't matter, because the article satisfies the normal 5x expansion requirement. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 20:00, 11 April 2014 (UTC)

• Article new enough, long enough. Expanded 5-fold. No QPQ required as only one previous DYK. Article reassessed as B class instead of a stub, and bare URLs removed by the reviewer. Fully referenced. Hook verified. Prefer ALT1 so have struck original hook. PD image on Commons. Good to go! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hawkeye7 (talk • contribs) 21:12, April 11, 2014

• I actually preferred ALT1 as well, it just happened to be the second hook I wrote in the DYK nomination template. Thank you for the most speedy review in DYK history! —  dainomite   22:58, 11 April 2014 (UTC)
