• ... that the 1958 Pulitzer Prize jury said a photograph (pictured) by William C. Beall "made a profound impression on readers ... freezing forever a moment of childhood innocence"?

  • Comment: Second QPQ for double hook Template:Did you know nominations/Nikolauskirche (Oberndorf) I will also continue to polish the articles.

Created by Bruxton (talk). Self-nominated at 03:27, 28 December 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Faith and Confidence; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

• Both articles are new enough and long enough. Sources are excellent. Neutral. No copyvio issues (Earwig gives a score of 30% for Faith and Confidence, and 16.7% for Beall, but it's due to quotes and proper nouns). Hooks are cited and interesting, and I like the main hook. I think the image is in the public domain. Both QPQs are done. Good job! Cheers, --The Lonely Pather (talk) 21:23, 15 January 2024 (UTC)

I will review this

Thank you for the review. Bruxton (talk) 15:33, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

Not a very long article but an interesting subject

• "The description of the image on the Pulitzer Prizes website" - should make prize singular

  Y I have done this.

• Citations - I have checked the citations and they are correct. Lightburst (talk) 02:26, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
• The images are good and they appear to be free and licensed
