I'll review this. ミラP@Miraclepine 18:28, 19 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall:

Created on nom day, prose 5060 B. Hook makes just as much sense in context. I had some reservations about whether the 2006 Olympics and 2004 Olympics origin claims conflict enough for the latter to be written off as a footnote re RS, but then Turin being the host had been well-known for years and the December 2005 ref was published only two months before the opening ceremony. Outside of minor fixes, not much worth noting here. ミラP@Miraclepine 19:56, 19 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

This installation, and especially its setting, are rather hard to visualize. Surely, there is a picture somewhere. Anybody?? Minturn (talk) 15:24, 28 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

We could probably take one as fair use, since the project no longer exists, but I didn't find any freely licensed photos. Any suggestions on which image we should use? theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 15:25, 28 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
