  • This article is a five-fold expansion and is new enough and long enough. The hook facts have inline citations, the image is appropriately licensed, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:26, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
ALT1: Since the article has been sitting reviewed but unpromoted for two weeks, I think a slight rewording of the hook would be better: ... that Cizhou ware was popular pottery not used by the Chinese Imperial court, and often made as ceramic pillows (example pictured)? (changing "a popular ceramic" to "popular pottery", avoiding repetition of ceramic etc.) No re-review should be necessary. Johnbod (talk) 14:50, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
