• Comment: The text expansions should be just under the mark from around less than 1371 to more than 7000 text right now.

5x expanded by KAVEBEAR ( talk). Self-nominated at 14:35, 5 October 2016 (UTC).

• Comment only Shorter ALT1 added. Edwardx ( talk) 21:12, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

• Looks good as far as DYK criteria for both article and hooks. I prefer the shorter ALT 1 hook; the other one looks to be a little long. Needs some minor copyediting but otherwise ready. Neutrality ^talk 22:30, 7 October 2016 (UTC)

• I agree with ALT1 hook. Striking original hook. KAVEBEAR ( talk) 22:46, 7 October 2016 (UTC)
