== Proposal: Consolidate the two gallery sections ==

Greetings and felicitations. The "Description" section is essentially a gallery section with additional text. I propose that the two images in the "Gallery" section be merged into the "Description" section's image table so as to eliminate the (IMO) unnecessary space. —[[User:DocWatson42|DocWatson42]] ([[User talk:DocWatson42|talk]]) 03:24, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

  • Ooh nice, I'll review these.

Article #1:

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems

Hook eligibility:

Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: Done.

Overall:

Article #2:

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems

Hook eligibility:

Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Both of these generally look good; I don't see any problems with the article, qpqs check out; but, and this might be personal taste, I don't think it's a super interesting hook. I think you could make something interesting out of the fact that he was a Danish sculptor and that the statue was funded by the local Scandinavian community.

@Generalissima: Thanks for your review. Here is a hook incorporating your ideas, and emphasizing the terra cotta aspect. Thanks, Zeete (talk) 16:03, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • ALT1: ... that the terra cotta statue (pictured) by the Danish-American sculptor Nels N. Alling was entirely funded by the local Scandinavian community and dedicated on February 22, 1896, George Washington's birthday?
@Generalissima: Another suggestion, shorter:
