Is this Nemoria extremaria or Nemoria elfa? I'm leaning towards N. extremaria based on the pink fringe. Thanks in advance for any help!

ID request or Moth page
Is it best to leave the unidentified moths as ID requests instead of moving them to the General moth page? Would they have a better chance of being identified as an ID request? Just wondering which way works better......
