Art of Uruk

 * ... that the art of Uruk includes the 5,000-year-old Mask of Warka, probably one of the earliest known near life-size sculptures? Source: Hägele 2013

 * Symbol question.svg &  New, in time, long enough, sourced, inline hook citation checks out, neutral, QPQ done (although as the reviewed article appears to only need about 2,500 characters of prose to qualify for the expansion, I would recommend urging its further expansion and completing the review). Two issues. First, there are two copied phrases which should be re-worded. Second, although the image is lovely, it is not a two-dimensional work, but a three-dimensional work, and needs the appropriate tagging. --Usernameunique (talk) 02:09, 6 December 2017 (UTC)


 * thanks for your review. I've paraphrased the sentence; hope it's ok now. Unfortunately there's nothing I can do about the image as I'm not the uploader. So I've removed it from the DYK. As for the QPQ, other users and I have made further comments, still waiting for the nominator's reply. I'll make sure to see it through to its conclusion. -Zanhe (talk) 05:19, 10 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Thanks . All set now. --Usernameunique (talk) 05:33, 10 December 2017 (UTC)
 * By the way, you might try asking on Flickr, as there's a good photo here. Might not get a response, but can't hurt to drop the user a line and see if they'd release the image with a CC license. --Usernameunique (talk) 05:35, 10 December 2017 (UTC)
