no QBQ needed, welcome to DYK, article is generally within core wiki policy (granted it seems sort), but with one qualm; where is the source for the stories listing? Ref 5 appeared to be behind a paywall, so I just wanna make sure it actually is Ref 5. Also, new enough, long enough, copyvio unlikely, hook backed up by source, like the wording of ALT1 the best but ALT0 is basically the same as well. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 03:33, 22 July 2017 (UTC)

@Yellow Evan: Thanks for reviewing my entry. Yes, the stories listing is from ref 5 (worldcat.org source, under "contents"). Is it under a paywall? It doesn't seem to be for me. I'm working on expanding the article, would that affect the review process? Bennv3771 (talk) 18:08, 22 July 2017 (UTC)

I see it now, thanks. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that anything you will add will be within policy. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 18:15, 22 July 2017 (UTC)
