 * Symbol question.svg Interesting, on good sources, offline sources accepted AGF. Hook: I don't like the two brackets in a row. Was the title like this at the time of the rejection? Can we drop "(The Harem)", perhaps add "disliked by the artist"? Perhaps only that he disliked it? - Whatever, absolutely with the image. Will wait for qpq and response. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:12, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Amended the hook and the caption as suggested. I am not sure about adding Renoir's opinion into the hook. I will try to think of an alt. Philafrenzy (talk) 22:20, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Don't, this is fine, rejected is stronger than disliked ;) - Just a review, then we are ready. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:26, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Reading hook again: perhaps say "painting", - otherwise we expect "women were rejected", --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:28, 1 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Symbol possible vote.svg Philafrenzy, it's been 17 days. You need to supply a QPQ within a few days, and also (if you wish) to provide an ALT hook with adjusted wording per Gerda's concerns. I hope we hear from you before it's been three weeks. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:25, 18 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Alt1 ... that Renoir's harem scene, Parisian Women in Algerian Costume (pictured), was rejected for the Paris Salon of 1872? Philafrenzy (talk) 23:04, 18 January 2015 (UTC)


 * It's not really a harem, can we call it harem scene? qpq? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:27, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I am not sure what Renoir called it but the commonly accepted alternate name for the work is Interior of a Harem in Montmartre (Parisian Women Dressed in Algerian costumes) as mentioned in the article so I think we can reasonably call it a harem scene. QPQ soon. Philafrenzy (talk) 00:14, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Gerda, a QPQ has been supplied. Care to continue this review? Fuebaey (talk) 23:02, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
