Hook: Short enough, interesting, AGF on citation, image is okay.

Article: New enough, long enough, interesting. AGF on offline and foreign language citations.

And just as well: I misread 12 August above as 12 July and promoted it in error. We have at least three weeks to further investigate this image or find another one for the phorminx. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:40, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

Thanks both; I AGFd on the image too, but have switched with this replacement, explicitly referenced as a phorminx in the revised image caption; I guess no matter if it runs before the games, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 10:14, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

New image is a detail from an image on Commons that appears in the article. BlueMoonset (talk) 14:18, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
