Welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you will continue to contribute to the project. Your article on the Bicycle King of Chicago is new enough (created 12/11), long enough (c. 2300 characters of text), sourced, and neutral. Our Earwig tool found nothing problematic in the ways of copyright violation or plagiarism. Both hooks are short enough and interesting. For some reason, Google books is now allowing me to read the full text of the source ("Unrivaled Chicago"), but I accept the nominator's citation in good faith. If Google allows the promoter to have a look at the book source, that would help. Image (from 1897) displays well at small size and is public domain. New user is exempt from QPQ.
