- ... that at the 2018 Batman by-election, the Division of Batman was politically divided by the "hipster-proof fence" or "quinoa curtain"?

- Not a reivew, however an alternative hook:
- ALT2: ... that during the 2018 Batman by-election campaign Teresa van Lieshout, a perennial candidate, taped their mouth shut and picketed a candidates' forum when she wasn't invited? Source: https://www.northweststar.com.au/story/5269156/batman-by-election-candidates-speak-out/

- Another alt hook suggestion, for maximum quirkiness:
- ALT3: ... that Batman had a "hipster-proof fence"? Source: [1]

- @Vigilantcosmicpenguin your suggested alt isn't supported by the source you gave, however it is supported by https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-03-17/voters-head-to-polls-for-batman-byelection/9553388. @GraziePrego, what do you think of the suggested alts? Also it appears that you need to do QPQ for one review. TarnishedPathtalk 05:46, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
- I would be happy with either of the suggested Alt hooks, I think I'm happy to let a reviewer choose between them and the original ones I suggested. I have also done a QPQ by reviewing the DYK for Bill Morrow (Australian politician). GraziePrego (talk) 07:03, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

This nomination has not yet received a full review. Flibirigit (talk) 18:32, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
Nominated within bounds of GA promotion, writing is appropriately sourced and free of copyvios. Most of the images are appropriately licensed, but the photos with the logos at the bottom of the article raise questions regarding copyvio; I'd say just remove them (unless the logos are public domain/appropriately licensed; I might have missed that). Otherwise, I'm willing to approve with a strong preference for ALT3. ~ Pbritti (talk) 21:48, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
- @Pbritti are you referring to the two images of the coffee mug which has campaign material on it and the Labor campaign t-shirt? All of those images were extracted from Flikr and all of the respective pages from Flickr have statements that they are public domain linking to https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/mark/1.0/. I do however have concerns that the person who uploaded those images to Flikr has the right to decide that those photos of another's work are public domain. If those are the photos you are referring to then I agree best to remove as they don't really add anything to the article anyway. Can you please confirm if those are the images.

- @TarnishedPath: Confirming that those are the images in question. There's no doubt about them being from a valid Flickr license, but I believe that this is an instance of license laundering and that the prominence of the logos prohibits the release of the images under a CC license. ~ Pbritti (talk) 00:48, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
- @Pbritti, I agree entirely. I've removed them from the article and I'll probably CSD them on commons later. I'll do some reverse image lookups first to find where the images originally came from. The copyright most likely belongs to the Australian Labor Party. TarnishedPathtalk 01:16, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
Thanks for the assist, TarnishedPath! ~ Pbritti (talk) 02:24, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
- GraziePrego, would you want ALT3 to be saved for the April Fool's set? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 10:51, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- AirshipJungleman29 That would be great actually, yes please. Thank you TarnishedPath for the fixes to the article as well! :) GraziePrego (talk) 01:08, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
