  • New enough, long enough, well referenced. Extraordinary claim, but the (offline) reference is certainly one I'd consider valid: expert in the field, reliable university publisher. No close paraphrasing found in online sources. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:26, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
  • Thanks for your review, Crisco. Just want to point out that the Shaughnessy reference is not offline; the url is incorporated in the doi link. -Zanhe (talk) 18:27, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
