Reviewed: QPQ done later

5x expanded by NFLisAwesome (talk). Nominated by ZappaOMati (talk) at 03:59, 25 August 2013 (UTC).

No need for QPQ as not a self-nomination. Expansion size and dates check out (expanded from redirect); references are good, some are slightly eeeh but those facts are also backed up by other refs. No evidence of CP/CV. All hooks are cited; reccomend the main hook or ALT2. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 04:41, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
