Article is new enough and long enough. It is well cited, including the hook with no obvious neutrality issues. Copyvio check reveals similarity between article and sources but this is due to large number of quotes (well cited) in the article. Hook looks good and QPQ is done. Approved.

@Retroplum: what are you saying about the copyvio check? If material that is lifted verbatim from the source has been placed in quotes, then there is no close paraphrasing. If material has been copied from the source without being placed in quotes, then there is close paraphrasing. Yoninah (talk) 23:24, 27 November 2014 (UTC)

@Yoninah: There is no close paraphrasing. Where information has been copied it has been placed in quotes. Retroplum (talk) 23:28, 27 November 2014 (UTC)

OK, thanks. Restoring tick. Yoninah (talk) 23:29, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
