Comment: ALT3 strikes me as most interesting, but also I couldn't verify the offline sources and the Nobel Peace Prize nominations list does not include Pfaus in the list of the 1932 Nobel Peace Prize nominations. — MarkH₂₁^talk 21:54, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Thanks I changed the wording in the article accordingly. Like so much about him, it was not to be trusted. Philafrenzy (talk) 22:50, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

This article is new enough and long enough. The image is in the public domain, the hook facts are cited inline and any of the hooks could be used. The article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues (Earwig was unavailable). A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:23, 17 February 2020 (UTC)

Thanks, probably Alt1 is best as it ties in most closely with the image. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:00, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
