  • The article is long enough and new enough with no copyright violations. A QPQ has been completed. The hook is directly cited. I assume good faith on the book references. SL93 (talk) 00:59, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
  • Comment: I take it that this should be moved to the special occasion section? SL93 (talk) 01:00, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
