 * Symbol question.svg I don't know if the above was supposed to be a review. My version: date, length referencing fine, detailed Polish sources AGF, no apparent copyvio/pl. I am not happy with the hook which is very general and doesn't appear like that in the article. Suggestions to think about:
 * ALT1: ... that the 1773 French satirical drawing of the First Partition of Poland, The Troelfth Cake (pictured), was banned in several European countries?
 * ALT2: ... that the 1773 French satirical drawing of the First Partition of Poland, The Troelfth Cake (pictured), likely was intended to be The Twelfth Cake in English? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:35, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I like ALT1, specific but in keeping with the original. sonia ♫ 14:28, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I am ok with ALT1. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; talk to me 16:49, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
