 * Symbol question.svg expanding ok but I could not find the mentioned hook in the linked webpage (Marek Rezler, Z Matejką przez polskie dzieje: Hołd pruski) Aloysius (talk) 20:24, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Did you notice it is a three-page article (poorly designed, I grant that)? From: the third page: " To za jego obrazem w latach okupacji hitlerowcy urządzili wściekły pościg i drobiazgowe poszukiwania, ten właśnie obraz był z narażeniem życia wielu ludzi ukrywany - podobnie jak „Hołd pruski”" PS. Please notify the nominator that you have a question on their talk page in the future, not everybody checks the watchlists or watchlists the pages here. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; talk to me 20:47, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
 * No, I did not and could not: the link to the hook, as I wrote, had brought me to a different page: Marek Rezler, Z Matejką przez polskie dzieje: Hołd pruski not to Marek Rezler, Z Matejką przez polskie dzieje: Bitwa pod Grunwaldem ... and it still does: "Together with Prussian Homage, it was one of the two paintings on the "most wanted" list by the Nazis, who engaged in a systematic action of trying to physically destroy all artifacts of Polish culture.[4]" => 4. ^ (Polish) Marek Rezler, Z Matejką przez polskie dzieje: Hołd pruski.

 * Both articles are several-pagers. From page 3: "W kilkadziesiąt lat później Niemcy wykazali większe zrozumienie rzeczy i „Hołd pruski” był obok „Bitwy pod Grunwaldem” obrazem polskim najbardziej poszukiwanym przez władze hitlerowskie.". --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; talk to me 22:24, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
