  • Meets DYK requirements for referencing, size and creation date. The quote is directly cited in the article. My only quibble is that I would have thought the quote would have been better off in the body of the article rather than the lead. But that is a very minor formatting quibble and nothing at all to do with DYK. Good to go. Miyagawa (talk) 19:48, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
