5x expanded by Johnbod (talk). Self nominated at 02:55, 10 February 2014 (UTC).

We've got a lot of Ottonian stuff coming through, so no harm in leaving this one a while. Johnbod (talk) 12:50, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

5x expansion verified. New enough, long enough, well-referenced. All refs are offline, so hook refs AGF. I prefer the original hook, but leave it to the closing administrator to decide. QPQ done. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 00:40, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
