[edit]- ... that slogans which had to be removed were painted on San Francisco's Vaillancourt Fountain by both its sculptor and, years later, by a famous singer?

Length good, move date good. Great little article here. Not seeing any major issues, spotcheck done for paraphrasing. However, I had to read the hook twice to figure out what is being said - the phrasing is a little off. How about ALT 1: that both its sculptor and a famous singer painted political slogans on San Francisco's Vaillancourt Fountain? Either that, or scratch the "which had to be removed" clause from the original. (I think it's assumed that slogans painted on public art would have to be removed) The Interior (Talk) 22:03, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
- I recommend ALT 1 with "graffiti" rather than "slogans". Cullen328 Let's discuss it 01:35, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
