  • ... that two dresses (one pictured) recovered from a 17th-century shipwreck may be the only such items in existence? Source: https://www.cnn.com/2023/02/17/world/dutch-palmwood-shipwreck-finds-scn/index.html “There may only be two such dresses in the whole world. And they are both here, on Texel.”

    • Comment: I feel very strongly that this hook needs its image, and this image besides being important to the hook and incredibly unusual and rare also helps address systemic bias, as it's both outside of the English-speaking world and is a subject that is typically associated with women. There's an alternate image with white background if we think that would be clearer at size, happy to swap it out at the article as I've been waffling.

Overall: @Valereee: Good article. Though, should the youtube video from Museum Kaap Skil be used as a source? also the alt picture you suggested isn't used in the article which it needs to be. Onegreatjoke (talk) 19:59, 17 March 2023 (UTC)

Hey, Onegreatjoke, thanks for the review! I wouldn't normally use most youtube videos as a source, but this one is professionally produced by a museum; usually I would consider that a reliable source. I'm happy to change the images out if someone prefers one over the other! I just didn't think the article needed both. Valereee (talk) 20:35, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
You know what, changed my mind: I've included both images. No real reason not to. Valereee (talk) 20:49, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
Approving under the assumption that the youtube source is ok. Onegreatjoke (talk) 02:22, 18 March 2023 (UTC)
