Horn's drawing of Baldwin's tomb

... that Israeli art historian Zehava Jacoby was able to suggest a reconstruction of the lost tomb of the medieval child-king Baldwin V of Jerusalem, destroyed in an 1808 fire, using a drawing (pictured) friar Elzear Horn had made in the 18th century? Source: [1] "On the basis of Horn's drawing, which proves to be fairly accurate, it is now possible to suggest a reconstruction of this monument".

This DYK nomination was done on 10/24. Baldwin V of Jerusalem was promoted at GA on 10/17. Elzear Horn was created on 10/19 and Zehava Jacoby and Tomb of Baldwin V were both created on 10/24. So the nomination is timely.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 00:06, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
BVoJ is 6251 characters. EH is 1866 characters. ZJ is 1835 characters. Tomb is 2002 characters. Unless there is significant overlapping content, all is good.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 00:06, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

BVoJ copyvio is 89.8%. I have never seen such a high number. Please paraphrase and summarize rather than copy. EH is 1%. ZJ is 22.5. Tomb is 0%. Just fix BVoJ.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 03:33, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think just the 1 copyvio needs to be fixed.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 03:53, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

TonyTheTiger, there is absolutely no copyright violation, let alone 89.8%. I do not understand where you get those numbers. Please do some manual spot checks. Most of the sources can be partially accessed via Google Books. Surtsicna (talk) 08:05, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, it's the Info List. That website copies Wikipedia. Surtsicna (talk) 08:11, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
