 * I will review this. Jonathunder (talk) 01:37, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

sorry for delay, your question was embedded in the template so I didn't see it on the page until just now. I contemplated adding the image, which is appropriately PD, but I think it is too small at 100px. I've depicted it below at this size. AlasI don't know how to add it to the DYK nom now it is in the templates form, so any assistance welcome if you feel it is worth putting in. -- Euryalus (talk),
 * You may be right about the size. What I would suggest is to offer the image to the folks who regularly put the DYK nominations together for a given day and they can evaluate if it works. Not all images nominated get used. Jonathunder (talk) 19:29, 27 April 2016 (UTC)
 * thanks, good advice though I'm a bit at sea on how to do it. Doyou know how I can add the image to this specific DYKN template at this stage? The article is now too old to withdraw the nom and repost it, and apologies for my lack of technical skills but the page as it appears in its current editable form doesn't allow me to put the image in next to the hooks. -- Euryalus (talk) 03:32, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
 * You're at sea <--- I see what you did there. It's a wiki, so we should be able to edit the nomination. If that fails, suggesting it here in the comments will probably also work. There's no need to start the whole thing over. I won't have a lot of time to work on this until early next week, but I'll do it then. Great article, by the way.

 * Hi - just checking in, in case you get the chance to give this dykn a further review. -- Euryalus (talk) 04:20, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg This interesting article is long enough and new enough. The original hook is supported by an inline citation to an online source. (I'm not approving ALT1 or ALT2, and ALT3 is less interesting than the original hook.) The image is in the public domain and the article is neutral. I detected no copyright issues but was unable to check most of the sources. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:59, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
