Squid

[edit]
  • ... that squid can move by jet propulsion and some species can even fly?
    • ALT1:... that the eyes of some squid are bigger than footballs and among the largest eyes ever to exist in the animal kingdom?
    • ALT2:... that some squid have two types of eye, a tubular one that looks upwards and a normally formed eye pointing forward and downward?

Thank you. I have altered the hook jet propulsion link, but haven't found any suitable images. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:34, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
Thanks Find bruce for adding the links and making the review even easier. I need a few QPQs so I'll take up on your offer. The article is new enough (recent GA), long enough, and well written. Hooks are interesting (I like AL1 the best and ALT0 next) and verified with supplied sources. QPQ is done. No copyvio detected. I agree an image would be nice, but that's not a requirement. Good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 06:49, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
