QPQ: Done. |
Overall: Article is new enough, long enough and well sourced. ALT0 is the best and most interesting in my opinion, so I'm approving that one. No copyvio on earwig and qpq is done. All in all good to go! My only comment is that it might be nice to add a photo. Could a cropped version of the one in the article work (it looks really nice)?

- Thank you for reviewing. I was unsure if the photo was ok for DYK based on rationale. There are others on commons which are cropped, however they are not aa dramatic. Bruxton (talk) 01:19, 29 December 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, the image used in the article (File:BrunoCatalanoArcachon (cropped).png) is not free as there is no freedom of panorama in France, I have nominated it for deletion at Commons. Sorry I didn't spot this before, I had thought it was taken in Canada - the flag should have been a clue! The ones in Commons:Category:Sculptures by Bruno Catalano taken in Singapore are fine, if the sculptures were on permanent display there (see Commons:Commons:Copyright_rules_by_territory/Singapore#Freedom_of_panorama). Any you could find taken of the one formerly in France which is now on permanent display in Canada would also be OK - Dumelow (talk) 09:15, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Dumelow and BuySomeApples: Thanks, I changed the photo. I think the Singapore photos are obscured so that it is not readily apparent what is unique about the sculptures. In any event I hope the nomination can proceed with or without the new photo. Bruxton (talk) 21:50, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Bruxton: Thanks for swapping out the photo in the article! That's a shame about the other photo but it's a great nom either way. I've approved this one without any image since the other pictures wouldn't work as well. BuySomeApples (talk) 02:45, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
