New enough, long enough, well sourced both from contemporary news reporting and later scholarly analysis, and the sources check out and support the content. QPQ, originally listed as pending, has now been done. Interesting hook, otherwise within DYK rules. The only copying found by Earwig consisted of properly attributed direct quotes. Good to go. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:50, 19 February 2017 (UTC)
