This is a newly created article, which is well referenced, long enough and passes copyvio. The hooks check out; ALT0 is intriguing, to the point and validated by the source (AMNH). QPQ is not required. The image is appropriate and has the correct permissions. This is a nice self-contained page, and I shall add it my bucket list of places to visit!
