  • At the moment, this does not meet DYK criteria because there is no inline citation for the hook quote. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:20, 26 January 2014 (UTC)
The citation in the article is <ref name="Chilvers p. 545">[[Ian Chilvers]]. (1999) [http://www.questia.com/read/74370572 ''A Dictionary of Twentieth-Century Art.''] Oxford: Oxford University Press. p. 545-546. It was accessed via Questia, a subscription required site.</ref>.--CaroleHenson (talk) 09:53, 27 January 2014 (UTC)
The sentence in the article "... she was most well known as "one of the leading artist hostesses of her time,"" needs to have an inline citation, even if a subscription is required to access it. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:47, 27 January 2014 (UTC)
It is cited in the article Ethel Sands#Socialite and patron second sentence. I copied the citation from the article. There's nothing in the article that is uncited.--CaroleHenson (talk) 20:49, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

I copied the citation that covered 2 sentences and put it at the end of the quote, if that's what you're looking for. I only insert new citations when there is a source change. But is that what you needed? You just wanted to see the citation physically at the quote? Thanks!--CaroleHenson (talk) 22:09, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

That's fine, it's one of the DYK rules that is insisted on. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:02, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
  • This article is new enough and long enough to meet the DYK criteria. The hook fact is now cited inline to an online source needing a subscription and is accepted in good faith. The image appears to be in the public domain. QPQ done and no other issues identified. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:02, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
  • The image doesn't show well up at 100px. It is very difficult to identify the person in question. I don't know, but is the use of {{Cropped image}} permitted here? It could give a result like this:

Thanks to both of you! Yes, that image looks much better and I like it much better on the article page. If it doesn't work for DYK, that's fine.--CaroleHenson (talk) 16:04, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
