Review

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: A picture of the monument would help and it's not clear why one of the article's pictures has not been nominated. Andrew🐉(talk) 09:12, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A good question, to which the answer is that I did not think about that at all. I quite like the infobox image, which captured the monument with the state and national flags around it. If others disagree, I can try to find another. CMD (talk) 10:18, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
