  • Comment: The first picture goes with the first hook. The second image goes with the second and third hooks. I prefer the first one since it uses a high quality image of Mary and her brother Henry which is a featured article.

To the promoter: Unless anyone opposes, please promote the first hook with higher quality painting of the two Pitman siblings. Maybe at a later date since this first part of the month has been filled with a lot of Hawaiian topic DYKs. Thanks.KAVEBEAR (talk) 16:12, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

@KAVEBEAR: I was about to promote the original hook but could not find any mention in the article of some of the biracial students being of European descent. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:31, 7 October 2018 (UTC)
