  • This article is new enough and long enough. The image is in the public domain, the hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:24, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
ALT1 ... that Mehmet Ismet Başaran's research into the first stamps of the Ottoman Empire was hampered by the loss of the official records?

@Cwmhiraeth: could you approve the Alt too please as it may be more interesting than the original? Philafrenzy (talk) 11:55, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

  • Approving ALT1 as well as the original hook. @Philafrenzy: Are you a philatelist? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:23, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
Yes. Philafrenzy (talk) 13:14, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
