Overall: 
I reviewed matches over 5% on Earwig's Copyvio Detector; no concerns. The positioning of the "Lawrie's stone screen" image may cause text sandwiching on some screens, but it was OK on mine. I ran a couple of scripts for very minor changes - I think the New York Daily News amendment is OK, but please check and revert this or any of the other ones if appropriate. Hooks all OK, but I found ALTs 3 and 4 less interesting than the others. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 08:18, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
@Epicgenius: Nice work, thanks. Let me know when the QPQ is done and I'll approve this. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 10:03, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
