  • Moved to mainspace on 13 December, so the article is new and eligible for nomination. This article is definitely above the 1500 characters, neutral, cited properly, and CopyVio result came out clean. The hook is neutral, at the suitable length, and supported by an online source. The nominator has done her portion of QPQ. The image is free (created in 17th century), used in the article and on topic. This article is good to go. SyFuelIgniteBurned 08:43, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
