Fifteenth-century Breast Ripper in a torture museum

  • ... that the Breast Ripper (pictured) was used in front of the victim's children?

  • Article is new enough and long enough. ALT1 is good to go, supported by this source: [1]. I'd recommend the replacement of this source: [2], as it says "This Page is an outdated, user-generated website brought to you by an archive" at the top. The picture is from commons and is featured on the article. Good then. Regards. — ΛΧΣ21 18:21, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
  • It means that the archive was user-generated, I believe. Not the page. Thine Antique Pen (talk) 18:56, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
  • With all due respect to all parties involved, I question how a review can be completed within 20 seconds after the article was nominated. Talk about speed reading! — Maile (talk) 18:25, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Looks to be 20 minutes, not 20 seconds. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 18:28, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
Fixed citation formatting. I too read the sources (except for the second book, which link says that "you've reached your limit.") I am having problems with the Toptenz website, which seems to flip in and out. As to those, I would WP:AGF. No issues. Despicable subject matter. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 18:30, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
  • (edit conflict) Actually, it took me around 30 minutes (I stalk TAP >.<)... The article is not very long and only has around 8 sources, so checking them was faster than I thought. I hope there is no issue... — ΛΧΣ21 18:32, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
My error. Sorry about that. — Maile (talk) 18:34, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
Don't worry :) — ΛΧΣ21 18:48, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
I assume that the original tick is still in place, as the discussion has been about how long the review took. Thine Antique Pen (talk) 18:59, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
The original tick is still in place. Again, it was my mistake, so it does not change the tick. — Maile (talk) 19:12, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
Note that I would like the image to be used with this hook on the main page. Thine Antique Pen (talk) 22:34, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
  • I'm very concerned about the sourcing of this article - the majority of the sources appear to be self-published. Nikkimaria (talk) 04:25, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Current footnotes 1, 3, 4 are definitely self-published, while 5, 7 and 8 may be (no indication of editorial policy or oversight, two with pseudonymous authors). Nikkimaria (talk) 13:52, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
  • 1's original website (GeoCities) is definitely self-published. The link you give for 3 indicates that reader-submitted content can be used, but does not speak to reliability, unfortunately. Nikkimaria (talk) 14:15, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Yes, Oocities archives websites from the former Geocities, which were home pages typically by individual people, and there was no editorial oversight. You've cited that source six times, but it is not a reliable source. LadyofShalott 17:10, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Referencing issues remain. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:28, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
