Moved to mainspace by Johnbod (talk). Self-nominated at 05:59, 10 December 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Pulpit in the Pisa Baptistery; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Interesting detailed article on fine sources, offline sources accepted AGF. The image is licensed and almost a must for this purpose. I see error messages for the isbn numbers of two external links ("checksum" for Olson, "length" for the one below), nothing that would keep me from approving, but would look better without on Christmas Day ;) - I wonder if the images at the bottom could be arranged better, but same. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:39, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks - normally a bot sorts out these silly ISBN error messages - apparently the number as printed isn't good enough. If that doesn't fix it by the day, I'll de-template them. I'm still expanding and the images will look different by the day. Johnbod (talk) 18:47, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Johnbod: I checked out the article, hook and image and will move this to the Dec 25 holding area. Bruxton (talk) 18:20, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
