The result was: promoted by Yoninah (talk) 17:01, 7 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Created by Dmadeo (talk). Self-nominated at 18:07, 30 November 2019 (UTC).[reply]

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Disclosure: I edited the article to standardize the use of citation templates and added a couple of author names and dates. I did NOT change the wording of the article's textual content in any way, and there wasn't anything wrong with the original citations; the changes were basically cosmetic and a matter of taste. I hope people will be okay with me doing the DYK, given the nature of my changes.

  • Hi, I came by to promote this, but saying that she donated the proceeds to charity isn't entirely accurate. She used the proceeds to found her own charity. I think that's far more interesting. Yoninah (talk) 11:49, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I believe Mary Mark Ockerbloom is correct according to the sources, it is just a question of where the emphasis is placed. I didn't think it was worth digging into that level of detail for the DYK hook, but I'm open to better alternate versions. Do you both agree the underlying article is good to go and we're just discussing the hook language now? Thank you both for helping highlight this article about a very interesting person. dm (talk) 06:49, 7 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
