 * Symbol confirmed.svg New enough (GA on December 8). Long enough, NPOV, appropriate in line citations, spotchecks don't highlight copyvio, close paraphrasing or plagiarism issues. Both hooks are within policy in regards to formatting, NPOV and in line citation. I prefer the quirkiness of ALT1. QPQ present so good to go. If ALT0 is chosen, Image is CC SA 2.0, is present in the article, has rollover text, clear at 100x100 and relevant to hook/article. Cowlibob (talk) 11:55, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
