John Rocque's Map of London

Created by Thincat (talk). Self nominated at 21:26, 27 June 2013 (UTC).

  • Now I believe everything is set. It is long enough. New enough. Great article! Lovely image.

But...the hook must be more like ... that John Rocque's Map of London, 1746 (pictured) is considered one of the "greatest" and "most handsome" plans of any city?

Once that is set I believe you're good to go. Please message me on my talk page once done. Proudbolsahye (talk) 03:16, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I agree it should say "considered". There is no need to convert the overall quote into separate quotes (though it wouldn't be wrong). The overall quote is verbatim of the source. I'm not sure which image is preferable. If it is the second one the hook should probably say it is simply one sheet (of the 24). The image I proposed first is a composite. Both images are in the article. Thincat (talk) 09:35, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

Okay. Hook is cited and ALT1 is good to go. I prefer the first picture. No need for "one sheet". It is not for certain these pictures will go on the main page anyways. Congrats on your second nomination! Proudbolsahye (talk) 18:13, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
