• This is my first DYK review. I've verified date, hook, size. But does the image serve any purpose in illustrating the article? Particulalrly, the article is about an experiment, not about a person associated with the experiment. --SupernovaExplosion (talk) 17:46, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

• Well, he ordered the experiment to be carried out, that is kind of relevant. The image is not really important to this nom, but why not? I just like images, I guess ;) jonkerz ♠talk 18:06, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
