  • Article seems to be eligible per 1d and has >1500 characters (3429). Since citation 5 seems to be offline, this is an AGF tick. Nice work! Sonoma's bridge. Sonoma's bridge (talk) 21:04, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
  • Suggest to reword the hook, for people who are not familiar with Feller:

Still prefer main hook, which is already approved. PumpkinSky talk 21:23, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
