New enough and long enough. QPQ present. Added a necessary cite invoke to match the link provided here for DYK purposes; AGF on the Japanese text, and the hook is pretty interesting with the photo. No textual issues I see. Good to go. Raymie (t • c) 22:32, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
If this didn't run with the image, would it still be hooky?- I think it would help to mention that the museum has more than 40,000 items. Yoninah (talk) 19:07, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
- I think it wouldn't; the hook is quite long already, and to headline this as a key fact is risky - the British Museum has "eight million", but is a deck of cards one or 52 etc; Laxman is pretty historic and cool and warrants (sharing) such headlining, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 19:21, 31 August 2020 (UTC)

- @Maculosae tegmine lyncis: The QPQ was already used for Template:Did you know nominations/Meiji Memorial Picture Gallery. Yoninah (talk) 19:28, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
- Hi, yes, I'm aware of that (confused it with the other Gerda music article I reviewed at the same time), but have put a hold on that one anyway, as I'm still trying to expand that article (5yrs and still only at the beginning...); I shall amend that hook when I take it off hold hopefully late tonight, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 19:34, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
- Acutally, not "already", as this one came long before, so presumably has precedence...Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 19:38, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
- So let me know when you remove the QPQ from the other article. Yoninah (talk) 20:36, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
- Ok, have switched that one with the Hindemith (though presumably an AGF would have been possible here...), Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 12:59, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
