- ... that William Blake's poem "The Human Abstract" explores the ideas of human and divine, illustrated by Blake's mythological deity Urizen (pictured)?
- Comment: May want to make the image slightly larger then the standard to see the full detail.

Article is new enough and long enough. However, it's not adequately supported by footnotes to sources -- some passages in the article don't have footnotes. More significantly, the hook fact doesn't seem to be explicitly presented in the article. A hook fact needs to be in the article and it needs to be supported by citations to sources. --Orlady (talk) 22:59, 9 November 2013 (UTC)
Referencing issues still not addressed. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:06, 24 November 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry it took so long for me to chime in here. I am not the original author, and don't have the time to address sourcing right now (it might have a few other problems as well). Thanks for monitoring @Crisco 1492:, Sadads (talk) 16:36, 25 November 2013 (UTC)
- The article is fine, but the hook is too unintereseting for a DYK.

- OK so the article is OK but the hook needs replacing. Here there is new hook which can be ticked from the article on an AGF basis. I also suggest that the new picture is a bit more eye catching Victuallers (talk) 21:10, 27 November 2013 (UTC)

- (alt1) ... that William Blake's poem "The Human Abstract" was (illustrated) by a picture of a god called Urizen struggling with the net of religion?
- Orlady's point about the article not being "adequately supported by footnotes to sources" remains true: no new inline source citations have been added, and she's quite correct in this, as was easily apparent when I skimmed the article. As the article still has these sourcing issues after over three weeks and the nominator will not be addressing them, I'm reiterating Crisco 1492's X. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:15, 2 December 2013 (UTC)
