  • New enough, long enough, well-written enough, images properly licensed, etc. Still needs a QPQ. Hey, Epicgenius, nice article! (Can you add page numbers for the citation from that PDF for the section "The western and northern facades..."?) I'm wondering about the hook, though. I mean, they're OK; the first one has fun phrasing, the second may be noteworthy to locals--what if you combine them? Can you do that within the length limit? Thanks, Drmies (talk) 20:42, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
  • @Drmies: Thanks for the review. I appreciate the praise! Anyway, will do a QPQ soon. As for another hook, how about this? epicgenius (talk)
