General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: Done.

Overall: This review is for the original hook. Created on April 19th, 4199 characters of prose. Earwig shows no plagiarism or close paraphrasing. Issues with sourcing of hook, neutrality in one section, and a factual issue with who made the terrcotta. Found5dollar (talk) 19:14, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Found5dollar: Thank you for the review. I edited the section about the imposter which now reads " The theater hired a doorman who said he was oscar award winning actor and boxer Victor McLaglen, but he was an imposter. Victor McLaglen exposed the man as a fraud and revealed that the man was actually his brother Leopold McLaglen". Changed the terra-cotta bit, the actual source language is "a great deal of the design credit must be given to the terra-cotta supply company in Chicago." So my error was in thinking it was a company rather than a generic random supply company- I fixed it. Regarding the hook citation it is correct and the information can be found in the first paragraph of the source. Lightburst (talk) 23:01, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Lightburst: the article now seems neural to me and the factual issue was corrected. Unfortunatly that cite calls it a "woman with butterfly wings" not a "butterfly." I'd suggest either changing the source or changing from claiming it is a butterfly to "a woman with butterfly wings." --Found5dollar (talk) 21:37, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Found5dollar: Seems like we are in WP:BLUE territory. The theater is called butterfly, according to most sources the facade is adorned with a butterfly. It is either a woman with butterfly wings or a butterfly with a woman's body but still a butterfly. I backed it up by adding a Rankin citation to end of sentence. "terra cotta butterfly for the facade, delineated in 1,000 light bulbs and spanning some 27 feet from wingtip to wingtip" Lightburst (talk) 21:55, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
