Article is new enough and long enough, so those other sources for expansion are indeed unnecessary for our standpoint here though they would be of benefit. Inline citations are throughout and it's written neutrally. I suppose an article about a urinal commemorated for Prince Charles is interesting enough without taking the piss, so to speak. It's an offline source though so AGF. Image appears well at this size and gives me a little anx about how it would look if they were all occupied. I believe the bold link term will need to be piped so as to not be a redirect. – Muboshgu (talk) 21:12, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
