Sifting and winnowing

University of Wisconsin–Madison Class of 1910 "sifting and winnowing" plaque

Created by Czar (talk). Self nominated at 02:50, 9 November 2013 (UTC).

  • Symbol question.svg Long enough, new enough, hook short enough (bits in 'pictured' brackets don't count). The plaque effectively sourced ALT0 and ALT1; I recommend that ALT2, if used, be either placed in quotes or reworded as it's still taken from the plaque. I don't know what UW-Madison is, so I would recommend writing it as 'University of Wisconsin-Madison' as you do have the room to do so. Image is fair use, but doesn't show up too well at small size - I simply cannot read it at that small! Also the lead section doesn't have a reference in it.--Launchballer 13:50, 4 December 2013 (UTC)
