Article is long enough, new enough, and appears to be well-cited. Hook is interesting, and directly cited in-text. AGF on the book sources. The picture is great, and correctly licensed. GorillaWarfare (talk) 19:01, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

Each fact contained in this hook needs an in-line citation at the end of the sentence that contains it, as per the DYK criteria. I'm not seeing in-line citations for the sixty-six men or the purpose of the expedition. ~ Rob^Talk 12:14, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

I've added 2 more in-line citations.--Orygun (talk) 04:50, 13 August 2015 (UTC)

AGF on offline source. Now good to go with the additional in-line citations. Thanks Orygun. ~ Rob^Talk 06:05, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
