Comment: I realize this isn't a full 5x expansion yet, but I ask prospective reviewers to consider that a) I completely rewrote the plot summary section and b) I am continuing to add to the article.

5x expanded by Daniel Case (talk). Self nom at 19:50, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Done OK, I'm done now. Daniel Case (talk) 19:23, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

13 Jan, total size 7342 bytes, prose approx 4776 now 40,621 prose 30k+. More than a 5x increase, long enough.
neutral, no obvious (C) problems against web searches. Not every paragraph is referenced, but it does provide plenty of inline references.
Hook is interesting, short enough, cited in the article, and the cite is in depth about the idea. QPQ done. Martin451 (talk) 21:12, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
well written, good to go. Martin451 (talk) 21:57, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
