Eternal Silence (sculpture) edit
- ... that according to folklore, people looking into the eyes of Eternal Silence will see a vision of their own death?
- ALT1:... that Eternal Silence is related to the sculpture around the tomb of Philip the Bold and Saint-Gaudens' Adams Memorial?
- ALT2:... that images of Lorado Taft's Eternal Silence have been incorporated into works by Claes Oldenburg?
- Comment: Wasn't sure if "his", "her" or "their" was better in the first hook. Open to any changes. The image in the article would only work if someone wanted to crop it around the statue at higher resolution. IvoShandor (talk) 23:02, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

- Hook: Prefer original, for Halloween. Reworded it to keep it gender neutral. Cited and reference checks out.
- Article: Long enough, new enough. Sculpture is PD, so image is fine. Paraphrasing seems fine. Referencing is good.
- Summary:
Good to go, for Halloween. Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:38, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
