New and long enough, neutral, verifiable, and no copyvios issues detected. Picture is free, used in the article, but does not show up particularly well at small size. You can tell it's a coin, but all other detail is more-or-less lost at this size. Would it be possible to create a derivative image that shows only one side of the coin and use that in the article and for DYK? I would consider that to meet the requirement for showing up well. Hook is cited and interesting. Assuming good faith, as the source used is a book. The first hook is potentially misleading, as the sentence structure leaves open the possibility that the Robbins medallions have each flown on EVERY Apollo mission (as opposed to each one flying on a single Apollo mission). For this reason, I prefer ALT 1. QPQ completed. Ping me when you've addressed the image issue and I'll take another look. ~ RobTalk 02:29, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
- Rob- Thanks for the review. I actually much prefer the ALT, so I'm happy to strike the original hook. As for the image, I've applied a css image crop which means when you click on the image, you actually get the entire image. This technique has been used on the main page successfully in the past.-Godot13 (talk) 04:38, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
