Hi
Gulbenk, review follows: article 5x exapnded from 3 July; article exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I didn't pick up any overly close paraphrasing from the sources I checked; image is freely licensed but I don't think it adds much at small scale (the aerial photo added by someone else to the article is a copyvio from Google and I have nommed for deletion); hooks are mentioned in the article and check out to the source, my preference is for ALT1 as ALT0 is a bit pedestrian. If you ping me when you have a QPQ I'll pop back to approve this -

Dumelow, thanks will do. Half way through that other review now, so it won't be long. Agree with you about the graphic, it was simply the only free image I could find.Back to you soon.
