article created from redirect within a week of nomination; copyvio checks out; article well-written and formatted; offline source accepted in good faith; hook interesting. Article could have some minor edits to meet MOS:LEAD standards — citations are included in the lead as well as content not mentioned in the body.; however, I don't think this significant enough to defer nomination.
