Blue Hall

... that the Blue Hall (pictured) in the Stockholm City Hall is actually red?

Scrapes in on length by 9 characters (I'm sure there is more to say so you can follow the spirit rather than the letter of the rules); new enough; QPQ done. No copyvio, etc. from the checkable sources, but some facts are cited to a mysterious Larsson (2011) about which the references reveal nothing more; please give us news about Larsson and let us know what he or she (or it; it could be the first robot author; let's not rule anything out) wrote in 2011.

Larsson references detailed as asked. I think the 9 character problem has been solved. :) --BabbaQ (talk) 14:01, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

I formatted the references and added a few more in English to verify the information. Article is new enough, long enough, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. QPQ done. Hook is catchy, verified, and cited inline. However, the picture is too dark at this small size and it makes the hall look black, not red. This would be better served running in the quirky slot. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 20:08, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

I took the liberty to change the image. This one shows the red color of the room and can be used if needed.--BabbaQ (talk) 23:50, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

Thanks. Image is pd. Your tweak to the hook is fine, too. Yoninah (talk) 23:57, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
