  • 3788 B, Article created by HappyWaldo on December 22, 2014, "Australian rules football" is cited to offline ref. Rest of the hook in cited in an online ref. Online ref checked for policy. QPQ not needed as 2 credits (QPQ check). HappyWaldo: About the image, did the artist William Handcock die before 1955? Only then can we say the the image is free. --Redtigerxyz Talk 08:01, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
  • Handcock died in 1871, the year after the portrait was painted. This is noted in the background section. Would you like the hook to be cited with online refs only? - HappyWaldo (talk) 08:47, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
Image is also good. Redtigerxyz Talk 14:16, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
  • I have added an online ref for Aus football in the hook. - HappyWaldo (talk) 22:37, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
