• This is an amazing article. Recently promoted to GA, thorough, hook is cited, no obvious copyright violations (65% match is because of direct quotes), neutral, and complies with other DYK supplement rules. No QPQ required at this time. Two things need to be fixed before I promote this:

(1) There are multiple bare URLs / incomplete sources. See Ref #16, #36, #44 (needs publisher), #84 and #102.

(2) Would you be able to add sources for each of the footnotes claims provided?

Please ping me when this is done so I can promote it. Thank you! MX (✉ • ✎) 13:35, 29 August 2018 (UTC)

@MX: Sources completed and filled. As for the footnotes, I took them out as they are not relevant to the subject and no adequate source could be found. AmericanAir88^(talk) 20:17, 29 August 2018 (UTC)

• @AmericanAir88: Thank you! Everything else checks out. Any preference on the hook you would like displayed? I personally think the original hook is more interesting and can get more views. Cheers, MX (✉ • ✎) 21:37, 29 August 2018 (UTC)

@MX: I agree, original hook is better. Thank you! AmericanAir88^(talk) 22:20, 29 August 2018 (UTC)
