- I'll take it. For starters, Gb321, can you look at the range for the age? The sources suggest it's between 3 and 7. Drmies (talk) 16:54, 7 November 2025 (UTC)
- Drmies, I added a paragraph about the differing age estimates. Let me know what you think. Gb321 (talk) 03:07, 8 November 2025 (UTC)
- Added a picture if you want it for the hook. Bremps... 20:37, 9 November 2025 (UTC)
- Drmies Any follow up on this? Gb321 (talk) 16:51, 20 November 2025 (UTC)
- Gb321, this is the first ping I get--the previous one didn't work. If you make a mistake in a name or whatever trying to sign, when you correct it you need to do the ~~~~ thing all over again. I'll have a look. Drmies (talk) 18:00, 20 November 2025 (UTC)
Send it on. New enough, old/young enough, etc. The image is properly licensed, it seems; QPQ was done. Let's go with the first hook. One thing, though, for the promoter: that image--can we put it in? It's a gorgeous bear, a page 1 bear.
- Drmies absolutely! I put the image in, hopefully I did it correctly Gb321 (talk) 20:21, 20 November 2025 (UTC)
