Hi Ornithoptera, review follows: article created 1 July and exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I made a small edit that moves one sentence a little away from the source, there is some similarity left but I think on the right side of acceptability given limited options for rewording; hook is interesting enough for me, mentioned in the article and checks out to source cited; image is nice and freely licensed; my only query is on your QPQ, you say you'll be doing it on 7 July but the one you've linked is from 2012 by another user? - Dumelow (talk) 14:59, 8 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi @Dumelow:! Thank you for taking the time to go through this article and with this review! It is greatly appreciated! To address your concern, I messed up and linked the original QPQ link when it should have been Template:Did you know nominations/Three Dikgosi Monument (2nd nomination). Hope that properly addresses your concerns!

Thanks Ornithoptera, looks good to me - Dumelow (talk) 19:18, 8 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
