Improved to Good Article status by Munfarid1 (talk). Self-nominated at 14:38, 2 September 2021 (UTC).

Interesting topic, told in detail on fine sources, French sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. The image is licensed, but too "restless" in that size, - could we use a different one, such as the first?
Picture replaced by a bigger view of one of the looted statues.
- In the hooks, we either have a description of the report, then no capital "Report" and sentence case, or a title, than all title case and italic. Please decide.
Done.
I don't think we don't need the month in the original, which I slightly prefer to highlight the president (President?) who initiated it all, and "looted" might be more familiar than "restitution".
Agreed.
- I find the "See also" too long. It should have no articles that are linked in the article (Collection (museum), ...), and perhaps better link some more in context rather than such a long list.
I think I followed all of your suggestions, - and thanks once again for your quick and helpful assistance, Gerda.
--Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:54, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
thank you, I agree! I added "example" to the pictured clause, and fixed my missing word above which you understood anyway ;) - I wonder why the word "Rapport" from the French title wasn't translated in the official English title. I think that what you did, just imagining it was, is a good solution. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:46, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
One more: can you find a way to link restitution to restitution (law) (and remove from the see also list, and repatriation to repatriation (...), to avoid Easter egg? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:51, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
Done, these concepts are linked in the article. Munfarid1 (talk) 09:00, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
Still pending, - anything missing for the final go-ahead? Munfarid1 (talk) 06:33, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
No, not pending ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:39, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
  • @Munfarid1: Hi there! I can't promote this until the image is used in the article—your call as to where. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 09:02, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
    I thought the image was just a crop of the multi-figure pic suggested first but see it isn't exactly. Munfarid1, can you find a place? Perhaps using the one with several scluptures for a lead? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:15, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
@Gerda Arendt: and @Theleekycauldron:: Sorry, I wasn't aware that the picture has to be exactly the same as in the article. Now, I added the picture for the hook just after the lead. So this should be good for promoting the nomination.Munfarid1 (talk) 09:01, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
@Munfarid1: indeed it is! It should be promoted soon :) theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 18:40, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
