  • Article size and date check out, DD shows no apparent CP/CV concerns, photo is Commons and licensed appropriately, hook fact checks out. Good to go. - The Bushranger One ping only 23:45, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
  • (edit conflict) I've just re-written this hook, as the original version wasn't accurate (this isn't 'according to the museum': it's a well documented fact, and the key feature is that the museum houses this historically significant artifact). I don't think that the picture is necessary - while I took it, it's hard to see anything at this size. Nick-D (talk) 23:52, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
  • Yeah, this is cool. Love the article, and ever since I read it, I've been trying to get a mental picture of the ship captain in the piupiu skirt. Maile66 (talk) 00:00, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
  • From memory, I think that the museum includes a photo of him wearing it :) Thanks for nominating the article. Nick-D (talk) 00:01, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
While it's not required given that this isn't a self-nomination, I've reviewed the DYK nomination for When the Emperor was Divine. Nick-D (talk) 10:37, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
