Alexander Bannwart circa 1906

AryKun, thanks for the review. I would love for this hook to be the lead hook with image. Would you mind giving a review for the image of Bannwart that I've uploaded? It's over 100 years old. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:28, 5 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The image from his youth is also clear at 100px and appropriately licensed, but I think that the original image has more character (just look at that beard and 'stache!) and makes more sense since it is closer in time to the fistfight. Ultimately promoter's decision, though. AryKun (talk) 09:32, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Promoter's comment to @AryKun and Muboshgu: normally, I'd give this one an image slot, but we're short on... well, pretty much everything, so some stuff has to get promoted early to fill preps. Sorry about that! I'll keep an eye on it, see if I can find room. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 12:30, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Theleekycauldron, a bummer for sure, but I get there's lots of images proposed and empty non-image slots. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:33, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
