- Comment: Some stub content existed few years back and was merged without a discussion, I've recreated and rewritten the article with inline refs, dropping most of the old content (half of which was trivia linke) and I think it should be treated as new for the DYK purposes.

- I agree with the conclusion that this should be treated as a new article (only one sentence was reused, it looks like). Under that assumption, article date and length meet the DYK criteria. Really interesting hook/article and the fact has been verified by inline citation. Thus, article is good to go. --ThaddeusB (talk) 20:20, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

- Right. And if you look at the source, it is Wikipedia (the old article we had). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 14:18, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
