 * Symbol confirmed.svg - This article has recently been promoted to GA status and any issues there may have been were solved to a good standard. The check using the copy vio tool confirms there are no worries. It does score high on two sources, but these are direct quotes and are okay. The hook is cited to two reliable sources and is a Guinness World Record. I like the first hook best. In addition the free image is uploaded to commons and was also reviewed by an administrator there, so that checks out. Good to go. Rain  the 1  22:35, 9 August 2016 (UTC)


 * I endorse the request to have this article in the image slot - it would look pretty silly for the bio page of such a well known person to be anywhere else, the article looks very comprehensive and the image is very good. But we might want to hold this one over until after the Olympics, because we have so many bio hooks running during the games. Gatoclass (talk) 14:24, 11 August 2016 (UTC)
