QPQ: Done.

Overall: QPQ done. Earwig comes back clean. Image wouldn't be usable since it is neither free to use nor clear enough for a DYK. Otherwise, the hooks are all fine. Approval for ALT0 and ALT3. Addendum: For whatever reason I misread the information for the file. Image is OK to use for DYK! Sorry for the confusion, folks. —CurryTime7-24 (talk) 23:18, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

Image was a cropped version so I restored the full image. I think it still conveys the emotion and maybe better because it seems to demonstrate the urgency of the moment. Lightburst (talk) 21:02, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
