The West German Audio Book Library for the Blind

Length OK. Hook is referenced but inconsistently phrased: if trams rattled past even at night, mentioning the egg carton makes sense. if not, then not - at least not in a "because" phrase. Judging from the article's phrasing (which I just clarified there), there were no trams at night. From that perspective, perhaps it's better to just drop the final clause?
ALT1: ... that the West German Audio Book Library for the Blind (pictured) made its first recordings at night, in a room covered with egg cartons?
However, this is not really surprising to anyone who ever made sound recordings, so another option would be
ALT2: ... that access to the services of the West German Audio Book Library for the Blind (pictured) requires proof of visual impairment?

New ALT1 clarifies the hook well and perhaps is a bit more fun/interesting so I'd vote for that one.Ultracobalt  (talk) 05:39, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

  • Fully supported by inline citations. New enough and long enough at the time of nomination. Image has copyright tag and is eligible for the main page. Hook alt1 and alt2 is supported by article text.
  • Sources in German and offline were not plagiarised and support the facts in the article. Article reads as neutral enough to me, though a case could probably be made it is a little promotional.--LauraHale (talk) 04:39, 11 June 2012 (UTC)

Good to go if mover doesn't have a problem with NPOV. --LauraHale (talk) 04:39, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
