As this article will be submitted as a Featured Article Candidate in the near future, I have proactively emailed the George Eastman Museum, the Minnesota Historical Society, The Universal Order and other organizations to obtain definitive answers regarding the copyright status of various pictures
194:. Hal and I are seeking any and all feedback regarding how to improve the overall quality of article: Are there any sections that need expanding or trimming? Is the prose and thematic flow of the article satisfactory? Do any citations, sources, or claims seem unreliable? Thank you in advance! β€” 1098:
That is great to hear. The article could definitely use a post-1930 image of Fitzgerald. I tried searching for one, but many appear to be still copyrighted. I'm currently waiting to hear back from the Minnesota Historical Society regarding the copyright status of various images. β€”

Do you have any particular criticisms or suggestions regarding the current state of the Adaptations and Portrayals article? I am planning to re-sort the references and add another picture, but I'm uncertain what else of significance should be added. β€”

Are you still interested in getting comments on this PR? If so, I suggest promoting this PR at various Wikiprojects, or asking editors who have written FAs on writers to leave comments here. If the article is ready, I suggest submitting it to FAC.
1508:
Yes, I'm still interested in co-nominating this for FAC. I shall close this Peer Review now. Feel free to submit the FAC nomination at your convenience during the next few days, and I shall be active throughout the nomination process. β€”

on the front page, we might want to submit this article as a FAC tomorrow in order to attract more interest and support from Knowledge projects/editors during the nomination process. Do you want to do the honors? =) β€”

Probably should. The current "Adaptations and portrayals" section is already too large and yet it is missing many adaptations which would increase its size further. With the glut of ongoing adaptations due to

I apologize for missing that. If you're still interested in conomimating this for FAC, I would be happy to do it after the PR close. I'll actually be active and carry my weight.Β :)

I think this article is nearly ready to submit for FAC status, perhaps as early as next week. The only remaining issues are verifying the copyright status of several images.

All right. Feel free to publish it in main, and then I shall work on trimming the "Adaptations and portrayals" section a bit to match the size of the other sections. β€”
