  • Article is new enough and long enough (2972 B). The article is neutral and has inline sources. No close paraphrasing or other policy concerns were found. The hook is interesting and sourced within the article. The abstract for the journal article supports the fact. QPQ has been done. The image has a free license, is used in the article, and renders well at 100x100. Looks good to go. Gobōnobō + c 01:22, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
