... that the Spanish city of Oviedo only repairs Woody Allen's glasses once a year? Source: [1] "El Ayuntamiento ha decidido que las gafas se reparan una vez al año, para actos especiales". - "The City Council has decided that the glasses can be repaired once a year, for special occasions"
Overall: @Unknown Temptation: Great hook, really drew me in, fascinating stuff! Checks all the boxes, long enough, sourced, without plagiairsm, the hook omitting the word "statue" is going to definitely bring in some curious people. A minor question, that does not preclude my approval of the review but would definitely be important to include is when was the statue first vandalized as the Vandalism and controversy section starts with the second instance. Great work! Ornithoptera (talk) 22:04, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ornithopthera The entire source for the second vandalism reads as such in English "Some thugs last night broke the glasses of the statue of Woody Allen in Oviedo. This isn't the first time it's happened. The sculpture is located in the centre of the capital where the genius director last year received the Prince of Asturias Award and was restored recently after suffering another aggression". I can rewrite the sentence by saying it was vandalised twice in its first year. Unknown Temptation (talk) 00:01, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for going out of your way to rectify that! Again, it wasn't going to hold up the nomination but it was very informative and helpful of you! Thank you so much, it was nice working with you! Ornithoptera (talk) 03:25, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
