Spotless smooth-hound

edit

5x expanded by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self nominated at 10:59, 24 August 2014 (UTC).

  • Article underwent 5x-plus expansion on Aug. 18-19, satisfying newness requirement. Article is also long enough, uses in-line citations, and appears to be neutrally written. QPQ done. The hook fact is supported by in-line citation to a seemingly reliable source here. The use of the words "flesh" (in lieu of meat) and "much esteemed" (in lieu of highly valuable) struck me as a bit strange at first, but I realize that you are trying to avoid unduly close paraphrasing. I checked "esteemed" in the dictionary, and the definitions see to be on point enough. Spot-checking shows esteemed efforts taken to avoid using the meat of the source articles and to avoid unduly paraphrasing, copyright violations, etc. QPQ done.
