  • New; 1874 characters so qualifies on length.
  • Neutral, clear, cites sources, BUT: please give individual page references for the different citations of the article by Neve and Porter, so as to enable check for accuracy and paraphrase - just citing 'pages 31-60' won't do, I fear.
  • Hook format OK and interesting, but see above - need clear citation to check.
  • QPQ OK
  • BTW I took the liberty of adding link to 'declination'.
  • On resolution of the citations issue, should be OK to go.....--Smerus (talk) 18:19, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
