Review (criteria)	Comment - I don't think that's a researcher. I think that's a seeker or even a pursuer. Or can you think of a more fitting word? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:51, 9 December 2019 (UTC)  Comment This point is weird. In fluent French for pearls they say: a pearl fisherman. But the title says chercheur there are several words in English, I do not know which one to choose. There is obviously a style effect in the title desired by the scluptor. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 09:33, 9 December 2019 (UTC)  Comment - A researcher is usually an academic who studies a subject. Chercheur is someone who searches, not someone who researches (rechercheur), I thought. For a researcher to kiss the object of his research would seem very unprofessional. :-) Ikan Kekek (talk) 14:48, 9 December 2019 (UTC)  Comment Well, at a certain age, this may be some kind of research ... ;-) But to be honest, if "La perle et le chercheur" is the proper name of the sculpture given by the artist, IMO there is no need to translate it. Just leave it in French. --Palauenc05 (talk) 16:27, 9 December 2019 (UTC)  Comment - I'd be OK with that. I may be biased, though, because I'm francophile. :-) -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:42, 9 December 2019 (UTC)  Support Researcher, seeker, pursuer or just lover, it's the only and therefore the best image in scope anyway. --Palauenc05 (talk) 21:47, 9 December 2019 (UTC)  Comment - Yes, but the scope has to be good. So shall we go with "seeker" or just eliminate any English translation? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:03, 10 December 2019 (UTC)  Comment Seeker is the word on which I hesitated, I corrected the caption and the scope. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 09:42, 10 December 2019 (UTC)  Comment As the scope has only slightly been changed, I guess we can keep the support as it is. --Palauenc05 (talk) 09:50, 10 December 2019 (UTC)  Support, useful. Is the usual format here to do title or sentence capitalization in English? So "The Pearl and the Seeker", "The pearl and the seeker" or perhaps "The Pearl and the seeker"? Sorry to deal in minutiae. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 10:33, 10 December 2019 (UTC)  Comment I only have this link [1] for official information. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 11:14, 10 December 2019 (UTC) Right. I just want consistency in capitalization. I'll make a small change. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:53, 10 December 2019 (UTC) Result: 2 support, 0 oppose => promoted.
