  - @Evrik: I've restored my comments you've deleted. I have no idea why you did, but it's never a good practice. I also note that you've added a new image after my removal of the previous one which since has been deleted on Commons as a copyright violation image. BorgQueen (talk) 05:02, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
