I can see some minor issues in the article: for example, the expedition is not linked in the lede (this is optional of course as the expedition doesn't have its own article and is linked in Byrd's article, which is linked in the lede). Another is that the phrase "(For details read Byrd's First Antarctic expedition (1928–1930)" is missing a closing parenthesis, though as the phrase seems awkwardly written and out of place compared to the rest of the article, it could instead be removed and replaced with a "See Also" template. Full review to follow soon. Courtesy ping to creators @
Broichmore and

@
Narutolovehinata5: Thank you for reviewing. Both
Broichmore and I have since edited the article, and the section mention of Byrd's first expedition is now included as a {{Further}}, would that work for the reader? I am adding below an ALT1 with another photo, cf. the article talk page. Thanks go to
Gerda Arendt for her friendly help. SamSailor 06:39, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
Thank you, I bolded the subject, shortened the clause, and dropped the years, to be more concise. --

A reviewer for ALT1, please? SamSailor 17:08, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
Article was barely just new enough to meet the newness requirements (moved to mainspace on June 1, nominated June 8). The article is adequately sourced, including the hooks. The images are appropriately licensed, although if the second image will be used in an image hook, I would suggest that it be added to the main article. No copyright violations or close paraphrasing was detected. Gerda has provided a QPQ. Both hooks are good to go, but ALT1 is snappier and appears to be the nominator's preference.
