  • ALT1: ... that Crater Lake #2 (pictured), on display at the Oregon State Capitol, was painted by Margaret Coe, the 8th great granddaughter of colonist Robert Coe?

  • Reviewed: NA
  • Comment: I'm partial to Alt1. I'm a historian, so I imagine Alt0 is more interesting to a general audience.

  • Not a review, but are we sure that the impressionist painting by Coe is released under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license? The source is offline, so it's difficult to check. I'm not sure if the Oregon Legislature and Coe would need to agree to jointly release the work in order for the license to be valid.

Updating with what I could find online. Ownership was transferred to the State of Oregon, per [1]. AnotherColonialHistorian (talk) 14:50, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation

Image eligibility:

QPQ: None required.

Overall: As an art student, I concur with the nominator that ALT1 is more interesting to that field, though agree that ALT0 is a hook more interesting to a general audience. I would suggest deciding to retain only 2 of the images in this article given its short length, and would propose between the 3 currently in use to forgo the Our Lives in Paint image as it does not seem particularly helpful for the reader's understanding of her work in a way that the paintings already cover.

Ah, I did not catch that. @AnotherColonialHistorian: You could crop an image of the subject from this YouTube video and upload it on Commons, as YouTube clips are allowed on the site. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trailblazer101 (talkcontribs) 23:04, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
