Article length and age are fine, no copyvio or plagiarism concerns, reliable sources are used. But the article doesn't explain where the concealed shoes were used (all the world? China? Europe? UK only?) A ntv (talk) 14:30, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
- Yes it does, in the first sentence of the Location of finds section: "Concealed shoes have been discovered in many European countries, as well as in North America, Australia, and perhaps even China." George Ponderevo (talk) 14:57, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
