- Date and length fine. AGF on offline sources. I prefer either ALT2 or ALT1, I think the original is a bit duller in comparison (It should be exterminated!). No close paraphrasing, QPQ is done. The picture licence is fine and it would be great if we could use it too. Good to go. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 08:06, 3 March 2018 (UTC)
