@Gerda: Hook, checks out regarding verification, interest, and length. Article length ok, policy-compliance ok, no copyvios. QpQ done.

Reading again: a week, yes, 7 days is the permitted time. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:35, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

. Thanks Gerda. I thought it was 5 days but I guess they lengthened it. Dr. K. 02:00, 31 August 2017 (UTC)
