• ... that Thomas Bewick's History of British Birds (pictured) was the book thrown at Jane Eyre when she was ten?

• – Article: new and long enough; no sign of copyright violations or plagiarism (after checking a few online sources). I think image gallery (or "Woodcuts" section) should come before "Notes". Hook: interesting, properly formatted and cited with an in-line citation in the article. Jane Eyre (character) should be linked in hook not Jane Eyre. Book wasn't obviously thrown at another book. Image: PD-image, but it's not the "book" itself which is pictured here, it's a woodcut from the book. — Bill william compton^Talk 06:20, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

• ALT1: ... that Thomas Bewick's History of British Birds (example woodcut pictured) was the book thrown at Jane Eyre when she was ten?

Hook tweaked to link to Jane Eyre (character). Woodcuts moved above Notes. Stated 'Example woodcut' not just 'Pictured'.Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:24, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
