Article is long enough, has sufficient sources, is neutral and displays no copyright issues. Hook is interesting and of a suitable length - I'd definitely go with the original, as I wouldn't deem ALT1 to be sufficiently engaging. However, the sentence containing the hook needs to be sourced (per DYK criterion 3b). I'm assuming that it's verified by Wolfe and Wehr, but I can't access the reference so can't know for certain. QPQ is in progress, image is suitably licenced. Fix the source for the hook and I'll give it a tick. Yunshui ^雲 _水 14:13, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

I have added the additional citation for the hook. Thanks!--Kev min § 15:37, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
