Made GA recently enough, new enough, long enough, article within policy - well sourced, no neutrality or copyvio issue detected. QPQ done. The hook is cited and mentioned in the article, however the use of parentheses in hook is frowned upon as per WP:DYKSG#C9. Could you tweak the hook to not use parentheses?

That's easily fixed by using commas or dashes instead. SpinningSpark 13:46, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
