- Comment: Due to the very long article title, reviewers may require two of the hooks to be shortened, to, for example:
- Hook 0a: ... that a major Asian collection was given to the National Museum of Ireland – Decorative Arts and History by Jewish benefactor Albert Bender while it was led by Adolf Mahr, head of Dublin's Nazis?
- Hook Alt1a: ... that wolf's head-patterned blue slippers, held by the National Museum of Ireland – Decorative Arts and History, which belonged to Irish revolutionary leader Michael Collins, went viral in 2021?
Query on the pic. Expansion checks out. Neutral & nicely written. All hooks check out - I think the first & ALT1 are better than ALT2. The shorter versions may be required. Unfortunately, the pic file suggests the photo was taken by NMI staff, & a link is given to a page saying NMI images are released on Creative Commons BY-SA 2.0 licence, which I don't think is enough for MP. Pity, as the pic is great. Earwig is up to its daily limit, so I'll have to return. Johnbod (talk) 17:14, 25 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Johnbod:, can I ask what you mean by MP? What else would be required, as the photo was taken by that curator. Smirkybec (talk) 17:19, 25 May 2021 (UTC)
- Sorry, "main page", where licence requirements are extra-strict. The uploader seems to have made two contradictory statements as to the terms, & we have to follow the more restrictive. Johnbod (talk) 17:24, 25 May 2021 (UTC)
- Actually, it may be User:BotMultichillT on Commons causing the problem - see the history. If this is an "unofficial" photo by a curator, that might escape the museum's standard copyright terms, & be ok. Johnbod (talk) 17:28, 25 May 2021 (UTC)

Earwig does pick up "such as Etruscan vases, gauntlets worn by King William at the Battle of the Boyne, a life belt and oar salvaged from the wreck of the RMS Lusitania and a pocket book carried by Wolfe Tone whilst imprisoned in the Barracks" from geograph.ie. Can you muss that up a bit? Johnbod (talk) 00:52, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
