 * Symbol voting keep.svg - - with this being GA promoted fortunately it easily hits some of the marks for me, age, size, quality, general source all check out. QPQ looks to be done as well. No copyright issues that I can see. Main hook is cited, looks like the Alt1 is sourced as well. Image looks to be confirmed from Flickr and looks appropriate for the main page. I'd say this is good to go.  MPJ  -DK  00:18, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
