Don't have access to the source but AGF. Article is new and long enough. Hook is interesting and properly cited in the article. However, per WP:QUOTE, the quote should be attributed in the article. Just saying who said that quote is sufficient. ~ Pbritti (talk) 04:29, 9 February 2025 (UTC)

Pbritti This was in the era of no by-lines in most newspaper publications. All I can cite is the newspaper, which I already did.4meter4 (talk) 04:37, 9 February 2025 (UTC)

- - As noted, I can't see the source. AGF that there is no byline so publication is as good as we can do. With that, we're good to go here. Nice work! ~ Pbritti (talk) 04:40, 9 February 2025 (UTC)

@Pbritti Thanks. Can you please review the image as well? Thanks.4meter4 (talk) 04:42, 9 February 2025 (UTC)

It's a 109-year-old poster uploaded at a decent quality. It's an automatic approval. ~ Pbritti (talk) 05:03, 9 February 2025 (UTC)
