  • Comment: Obviously I would like this to run on September 4, the 45th anniversary of the theft. I realize it's short notice, so I will be leaving a note on WT:DYK asking for expedited review. Also, I know, that with my hook for 2011 Montreal Museum of Fine Arts theft running the day before, we will have two consecutive days with hooks about thefts of art from the same museum. But, I can't do anything about that coincidence of those anniversaries (noted in the latter article, actually). Daniel Case (talk) 14:42, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

  • Symbol confirmed.svg New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. All images freely licensed. QPQ done. The first hook ref is verified and cited inline; this could be used with the image. Alternately, ALT1 is also very hooky and the hook ref is verified and cited inline. I struck ALT2 for being a little long-winded. Good to go for September 4 anniversary of theft. Yoninah (talk) 20:54, 31 August 2017 (UTC)
