• 
• The article is newly written.
• The article has not previously featured on the Main Page.
• The article is long enough.
• Citations are sufficient and drawn from reliable published sources.
• No disputes surround the article.
• I see nothing that might be construed as a BLP violation.
• I can find no particular issues with plagiarism. The wording appears original.
• I see no neutrality issues, either. This is a straightforward account.
• The article is not up for AfD.
• The Google Books hook fact checks out. - Biruitorul ^Talk 05:25, 13 August 2016 (UTC)

• @Orygun and Biruitorul: - Came to promote this but I do not see a direct citation by the "Pennsylvania" claim, for DYK hooks it must be directly cited after the sentence it occurs in. Please provide the specific source and we can get this promoted into the prep area.  MPJ-DK  13:00, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
