Long enough and new enough. The hook is interesting and properly cited. Within policy, images licensed and no copyvio found in prose. QPQ is still required. I would also suggest the lead should be longer per WP:LEAD given the length of the article, but that is not something to hold up DYK approval. QPQ is required but has not been done.

@Spinningspark:, Thank you for the review. QPQ done. I will expand the article after DYK and take it to GA. So I will rewrite the lead after the expansion. Regards,-Nizil (talk) 05:35, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

It's a bit odd that you moved the page to mainspace before you finished expanding the article, but this is now ready for DYK. SpinningSpark 10:27, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

Thank you. Article was in draftspace for months. I moved it to mainspace because it was large enough and good enough to be in mainspace. Further expansion will be for GA.-Nizil (talk) 04:49, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
