ALT1: ... that Ettore Sottsass's design of the Olivetti Valentine typewriter (pictured) was inspired by the pop art nudes of painter Tom Wesselmann? Source: "Sottsass transcended the sameness of typewriter design to give it an endearing personality. He tuned into Pop art, citing the orange nipples and pink breasts in Tom Wesselman's nudes as inspiration for the orange scroll caps."The Metropolitan Museum of Art: https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/739409
Comment: I'm indifferent as to which hook would be preferable. Open to others' preferences and/or suggestions for improvement! Cheers, Cl3phact0 (talk) 22:53, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
Comment: There have been many typewriters that have sold for a lot of money, but likely only one typewriter inspired by nude paintings. I strongly prefer the Wesselmann hook.842U (talk) 19:35, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
Overall: I agree that ALT1 is the preferable hook. Nice article, but there a couple of sourcing issues that need to be addressed: I have added one citation needed tag, and have tagged three unreliable sources (blogs and Tumblr) which should probably be removed. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 14:51, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
Comment: Thanks, AirshipJungleman29! I'll have a look at the tags (as I'd guess will 842U) and try to help resolve any sourcing issues. I've also struck out the first hook above for clarity, as ALT1 seems to be the preferred option. Cheers, Cl3phact0 (talk) 15:17, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
Comment: I've resolved 2 of the 3 unreliable sources and am wondering if we should somehow preserve the third, as it contains a photograph of Dieter Rams actually typing on his Valentine (or if not, whether it's possible to upload the image to Commons for posterity)? I'm also wondering if there's a better way to resolve the advertising spot references (most of which are on youtube) – perhaps a notelist that groups these together? -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 09:41, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
@AirshipJungleman29: Is this ready for approval? If not, what else needs to be done? Z1720 (talk) 02:27, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
The unreliable sources have been removed, so approved. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 22:42, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
