Article was recently promoted to GA, so per Eligibility criterion G it is acceptable as new. QPQ done, and hook is sourced.--Tomobe03 (talk) 17:54, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

It appears to be a fine article, but what exactly was done as part of the DYK review? It's eligible as a GA, the hook is sourced, and QPQ is complete, which are a few of the requirements, but were the other checks done: close paraphrasing, image licensing, etc.? Please clarify which ones have been satisfied. The GA review/promotion cannot be used here; DYK needs a complete, independent review. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:34, 29 September 2013 (UTC)

I (apparently incorrectly) assumed that the recent GAR would be sufficient to address those issues. Will complete the review and post back here in a couple of hours.--Tomobe03 (talk) 15:39, 29 September 2013 (UTC)
I'm uncertain about how well the image looks small. Please feel free to run the hook without the image. Hawkeye7 (talk) 05:33, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

No close paraphrasing found, the image is properly licenced and used in the article. The article itself is neutral, long enough and fully referenced, and the hook is within policy requirements (interesting, referenced and neutral). Still good to go.--Tomobe03 (talk) 10:51, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, Tomobe03, for your careful review. I've taken the liberty of moving your tick to the beginning of it, where a promoter will be better able to see that this is approved. BlueMoonset (talk) 12:47, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
