  • New enough, long enough, and well sourced, with an interesting and properly sourced hook. The article text could use copyediting but that's not a big enough issue to block DYK, and the wording looks sufficiently different from the source to be non-problematic wrt copying. The image is appropriate and public domain. QPQ done. Good to go. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:43, 16 September 2017 (UTC)
