Quoit brooch

[edit]

Round silver brooch

5x expanded by Johnbod (talk). Self nominated at 00:23, 28 October 2014 (UTC).

  • Article long enough, expanded over 5x, and fully referenced. Hook short enough, interesting enough, and cited to offline source; image is nominator's own work. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 10:04, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
Changed "fewer than" to "only about" 40, as one was discovered in 2013, after the ref was published. [1] Johnbod (talk) 21:35, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
Noted, no problem with the additions to the article or the modified hook. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 13:25, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
  • "Fifth-century" needs an inline cite for DYK purposes. Yoninah (talk) 23:30, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
  • There are several inline citations to the fifth century in the article as it stands. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 00:35, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
  • There is only one inline cite to "fifth-century" in regard to a specific piece. I think the sentence that needs the cite is: The brooches, and the style, are mainly found in high-status burials in southern-eastern England, south of the Thames, dating from the 5th century.
