Number of QPQs required: 0. Nominator has less than 5 past nominations.
Post-promotion hook changes
will be logged on the talk page; consider
watching the nomination until the hook appears on the Main Page.
QPQ: - not needed Overall: A good start article – would be good to have some more biographical information and possibly a picture if possible. But other than that. The article is eligible with an interesting hook and no copyright violations. Source is offline but I have no reason to believe it doesn't back up the hook.

GnocchiFan, you should use {{subst:DYKtickAGF}} if you are assuming good faith for an offline source. I have added a reference to the Times, which you should be able to check via Gale in
Wikipedia:The Wikipedia Library.
