Used in	Global usage
Reason	A QI image, correctly depicting the Romanesque portal of the former Sainte-Marie d'Oloron cathedral in Oloron-Sainte-Marie, Pyrénées-Atlantiques, France. Classé Monument historique. -- Myrabella (talk)
Review (criteria)	Support : best in scope. --JLPC (talk) 15:28, 13 March 2013 (UTC)  Question The detail called Avaleur d'homme in the image note is in de:Oloron-Sainte-Marie#Kirche_Sainte-Marie identified as fr:Tarasque. Is this correct? --Ikar.us (talk) 17:09, 13 March 2013 (UTC) Hmm, the Tarasque is more a fabulous creature from Provence. In Poitou-Charentes, “Grand'Goule” is a rather similar monster (poke JLPC ;). I don't know if there is a specific legend in Béarn with a local monster name... This kind of representation of a creature swallowing a man can be found elsewhere, for example here in Sweden. --Myrabella (talk) 18:16, 13 March 2013 (UTC) Result: 1 support, 0 oppose => promoted.
