  • New enough. Long enough. QPQ done. NPOV. WP:AGF on the citations, as none are available online. Nonetheless, the hook fact needs a citation at the end of the article sentence in which it appears. I have confirmed the hook fact to be correct from the Tate catalogue entry for the bronze bust itself. Not possible to confirm that the article is free of close paraphrasing issues, copyright violations and plagiarism, but the creator has a good track record. Last para needs a cite. Hook is good enough. In my view, the article would look better with headings! Edwardx (talk) 18:05, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
  • Thanks for this. I have put in some headings, and a ref for the last para (not I think strictly needed for DYK). Can I point out that, in fact, all the citations are online without subscription requirements, and links are given, so checking should be straightforward. The hook fact was substantiated by the citation at the end of the paragraph, but I have now repeated this at the end of the relevant phrase. I hope this may be sufficient for you to consider the article OK for DYK. Best, --Smerus (talk) 18:17, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
  • Thank you for the headings. Good point about the sources, and I've now run dup detector on them, and found no close paraphrasing issues, copyright violations or plagiarism. Hook cited. All paras cited. Good to go. Edwardx (talk) 14:10, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
