@Brianhe: I removed a few citations that did not include the information sourced to them. I suggest going through the online cites one by one to make sure the cited information is correct. Yoninah (talk) 22:44, 23 June 2016 (UTC)

I made the changes. Let me know if there is anything else. Also it's a Good Article now as well. @Brianhe: @Yoninah: KAVEBEAR (talk) 23:00, 23 June 2016 (UTC)

Not sure why this was promoted without a final tick. Final review still needed based on my comments above. Yoninah (talk) 12:42, 27 June 2016 (UTC)

This article is new enough and long enough and also qualifies for DYK as a newly promoted GA. The sample online cites I checked were OK. The article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:05, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
