... that the Port an Eilean Mhòir ship burial, excavated in 2011, is the first confirmed Viking ship burial to be discovered in mainland Scotland since 1935?

I added myself, as I wrote much of the current content and added it in this edit. Prioryman (talk) 19:59, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

the article was created on 19th October, is over 4,500 characters long, is neutral, cites sources
the hook is short enough & meets formatting guidelines. It is interesting (intriguing actually) and is referenced in the article
the image is a ~~fair use~~ free image & used in the article.
Good to go as far as I can tell. Dan arndt (talk) 01:47, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
