- Comment: There is an image of the hall available on wikicommons, at [1], but I am not sure if it is acceptable for DYK as the author is unknown. Feel free to add it if it is acceptable. Thank you --Rushton2010 (talk) 19:19, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

Created by Rushton2010 (talk). Self nominated at 19:19, 25 June 2013 (UTC).
- Article - moved from re-direct on 25 June; 4008 characters of readable prose, so long enough; neutral; at least one inline citation to every paragraph; no copy vios detected using earwig/duplication detector; un-assessed, so not a stub.
- Hook - within length criteria at 118 characters; correctly formatted (I fixed the re-direct); correctly cited/supported by ref #6 in the penultimate paragraph of 'History' section; and interesting. I have struck ALT1 as I find the wording of the original hook less cumbersome.
- No image used; QPQ - I would have liked to see a fuller QPQ undertaken but that's just me, I suppose.
Seems fine. SagaciousPhil - Chat 14:17, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
- I did a full review for the QPQ the same as anyone; it was over a fortnight since the first reviewer raised concerns so I couldn't guarantee they're hadn't been big changes.
- Do you have any views about the image? {http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Garendon_Hall.jpg] It's free use and over 120 years old, etc. etc., just the actual photographer is unknown. I can't find anything in the DYK rules about the photographer having to be named, so if you're happy with it I'll add it. Thanks--Rushton2010 (talk) 15:37, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
- OK, thanks for clarifying re the QPQ (you hadn't really mentioned you had re-checked everything). I had looked at the image license as I do like the photo; I'm not very up on what's allowed though! Maybe Crisco can advise as he's brilliant about that type of thing (and ever so helpful - not that I'm grovelling or anything!). SagaciousPhil - Chat 15:45, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
