 * Symbol confirmed.svg New enough, long enough, neutral, appropriately sourced. Spot checks against sources reveal no copyvio or plagiarism concerns. QPQ done. Image provided is CCSA 2.0 and is confirmed to be a cute little bird. I'm inclined to prefer ALT1, personally, but either is likely acceptable. If the base hook is used, I'd suggest "eyelids" be quoted (since they're not actually eyelids). Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 16:51, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
