5x expanded by FunkyCanute (talk). Self-nominated at 12:36, 20 August 2015 (UTC).
A1: New enough. A2: Long enough (expanded). A3: Neutral. Cites sources (although one of the sources is a bare URL, which needs to be fixed). No copy-vio found.
- H1: Short enough hook. H2: I find the hook interesting, it is cited (partly to off-line sources), and it is neutral.
- QPQ is in order.
- Image seems fine.
- Good to go, once that bare URL is fixed. Manxruler (talk) 22:15, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
- That bare url is now fixed.FunkyCanute (talk) 16:55, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
Assuming the review by Manxruler has touched all the basics, the bare URL has been fixed, and this is good to go. — Maile (talk) 17:52, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
- Yeah, all basics had been touched. That URL is only very barely not bare any more, but I suppose it will do. Really should have been better, but okay. Manxruler (talk) 02:03, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
- Checked the sources, and this is getting promoted... right now! Adam Cuerden (talk) 18:08, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
