This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline and either hook could be used, the article is neutral, and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:03, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Just got permission on an image which is now in the article. Victuallers (talk) 09:59, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Both hooks are fine, but I thought I'd note I'm choosing ALT1 to promote because of the ideas expressed at WP:FIRSTWOMAN. — Bilorv (talk) 12:31, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
