Article is long enough and new enough. The article is well sourced and not totally in Polish which is appreciated, AFG'ing the polish ones. The hooks are both mentioned in the article and correctly represents what is stated in the article. Both hooks are cited appropriately. The image in the article has an appropriate license. No tags in the article at the time of the review. It is within policy and the QPQ has been provided and looks to be according to guidelines. Finally I saw no copyright issues so this hits all the marks and is good to go. [Unsigned review by MPJ-DK]
Returning to prep for reconsideration of the hook after this discussion. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:05, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: The (above) thread is now available for viewing at talk:Did you know/Archive 137 moved by Lowercase sigmabot III on 23 March 2017. All issues raised there have been resolved and the article was improved further. Poeticbent talk 15:22, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
I'm not keen on the valuation of $100M because it seems too speculative. Each of these Bibles has distinctive features and provenance which would make the auction price quite uncertain. Here's an ALT based on a fact about this particular Bible? Andrew D. (talk) 09:57, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- ALT2:... that the Gutenberg Bible in the Diocesan Museum in Pelplin (pictured) has a unique mark which revealed the size and shape of the type? (Source: The Holocaust and the Book)
Reviewer needed to check the two ALT hooks. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:27, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
Both ALT1 and ALT2 are acceptable. Rest of review as per MPJ-DK. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:24, 26 March 2017 (UTC)
