  • You have at least five DYK credits, so you must post a QPQ. If you have reviewed another article, please replace this comment with a QPQ. With pleasure, George Ho (talk) 17:41, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
  • I have a concern about using this image. I'm not an expert on this matter but software are usually copyrighted, and screenshots are often used in articles under a fair use rationale (unless the software itself is released under an open license compatible with Wikipedia copyright policies). Since this image shows the operating software of the phone, would this be an issue? If a reviewer who knows about image copyrights could weigh in, that's be great.

As noted, we would have to be sure that the technology was open-source and the interface not subject to copyright. The image is at Commons ... perhaps an inquiry could be opened there.

Or we could just approve the hook without the picture. Daniel Case (talk) 04:46, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

  • There have been three talk-page requests for ViperSnake151 to come here and deal with the various issues raised. The lack of a QPQ was first mentioned above three weeks ago. Given no response and no apparent interest in this nomination, despite consistent editing on Wikipedia, I think it's time to close this nomination. I'm still hoping the nominator will show up before this submission is formally rejected, but it's probably a forlorn hope. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:19, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
