New enough, long enough, well-referenced, neutral language. Hook is interesting and cited with RS. No copyvio detected. Image has proper copyright status, however, I suggest it be cropped to be appropriate for main page thumbnail. I also added some tags to request clarifications on the article, please take a look. Also, note that QPQ needs to be done before this can be approved. HaEr48 (talk) 00:58, 21 May 2018 (UTC)

Thank you @HaEr48:. QPQ done. Will sort issues and ping back. @Philafrenzy:. Whispyhistory (talk) 05:06, 21 May 2018 (UTC)

Unfortunately the image is rather poor quality and grainy and doesn't seem to crop well. It also relates to him strolling through the ruins of Strasbourg after the siege for which we didn't develop a hook. I can crop but it won't be good. There is a photo on Commons but it won't win any prizes either. Philafrenzy (talk) 09:11, 21 May 2018 (UTC)

Good to go now. QPQ was done, and the clarification tags are resolved. As for the image, it's good from copyright point of view but I'll let promoters decide whether they want to use this for the lead hook with image. Thanks for the response. HaEr48 (talk) 22:10, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
