 * Weak support - This doesn't really grab me, as illustrations go, but it has plenty of information and a citation on the file page to back it up. Moonreach (talk) 20:44, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Comment I don't love the colour scheme for the borders: I'm not colourblind, but with all the colours for the plates, telling dark green from dark blue and dark purple is very difficult unless you zoom in quite a bit. And then you have a magenta-red pair. There has to be a better way. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.9% of all FPs. 21:27, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
