Article is long enough and moved from userspace within the window. QPQ is done. ALT0 checks out, and I think is a much better hook than ALT1, though that one checks too. File:Hendrik Wortman (1859-1939).jpg doesn't look to be PD in the United States, as it's a 1929 publication; we can't use it under fair use as File:Portret van Ir, SFA022800407.jpg (I've tidied up the licensing on that one) is a reasonable substitute. Easy enough fix -- just move that second portrait up and get rid of the first (you might put an External Media link to it, since it'll almost certainly be PD next year, and can then be brought in). No copyvio, BLP or other concerns with the text -- we should be good to go once the images are sorted. UndercoverClassicist T·C 10:04, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hi UndercoverClassicist, I've moved the images - good catch. This also gave me an opportunity to add the image of the Wortman Pumping Station, which I've done. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 11:32, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
- And that checks, so
Approved, with preference for ALT0. Nice work. UndercoverClassicist T·C 11:45, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
