Le Pont de l'Europe

[edit]

Le Pont de l'Europe (1876) by Gustave Caillebotte

Created/expanded by Cmprince (talk). Self nominated at 04:39, 5 March 2013 (UTC).

  • - Expansion insufficient: prose size 1224 B (Jan 6) to 2374 B (Mar 6) measured w/Prosesize.js. New prose size should be 6120 or more for 5x expansion(since it's not a BLP). --Lexein (talk) 13:48, 6 March 2013 (UTC) Doh, see new review below --Lexein (talk) 14:26, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
  • (edit conflict) New, prose size ok=2374, in policy, hook length ok, hook interesting, image is free and is sufficiently usable for DYK. The citation supports the hook conditionally: "if Caillebotte's identification with the flaneur is accepted", so the hook should, in my opinion, include that hedge as well in its language. I don't have a language suggestion, but there's time. Another reviewer's opinion may differ. --Lexein (talk) 14:26, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
  • I wrote "suggests" to try to hedge it, but I take your point. How about
ALT ... that art historian Norma Broude suggests that Gustave Caillebotte's Le Pont de l'Europe (pictured) may depict the artist cruising near the Gare Saint-Lazare?

  • - I'm going to go ahead and pass ALT' hook - there should be more DYKs about art, hopefully more assertive than "suggests" in future. It's all good, though. --Lexein (talk) 15:13, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
