Symbol voting keep.svg Interesting history, on good sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. The image is licensed and the perfect illustration to a good hook. Should there be a commons category for the title? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:42, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
  • If you mean "was" I would see that as unnecessary but now I look again I wonder if the hook should read "features" as it still does? Philafrenzy (talk) 09:39, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
  • Template:U, at first (and now second) glance, I didn't read "featured" as the verb. I thought this was the beginning of a clause, like: that the ABC Rail Guide featured in Agatha Christie's novel The A.B.C. Murders also appears on the cover of two editions of the book (first edition cover pictured)? Yoninah (talk) 11:38, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
  • I have no problem with that but I think the original is more pithy. (changed to features) Philafrenzy (talk) 12:16, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
  • Yes, "features" is better. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 13:20, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
