 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article is long enough and new enough.  The hook is short enough and interesting enough.  The hook fact is supported by reliable sourcing.  QPQ has been completed.  Spot-checking reveals no evidence or concerns with respect to copyvio or unduly close paraphrasing.  Some might suggest the content could be merged into the existing article on the 1943 Gibraltar B-24 crash (perhaps also Europa Point), but the memorial itself has received coverage in both Polish and Gibraltar press, and I'm satisfied that it is worthy of a stand-alone article. Nor do I believe that this article is promotional in nature, such that it would create a COI concern. Cbl62 (talk) 17:06, 13 July 2013 (UTC)




 * I'd like to see a source for "The new design is a semi-circular structure with a diameter of 5 metres (16 ft) and a maximum height of 3 metres (9.8 ft)"> Other than that looks good to go.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld  19:21, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
 * That would be source 5 in the article, this Polish news story. Prioryman (talk) 20:00, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
