Angelina Atyam
- ... that Angelina Atyam was awarded the 1998 United Nations Prize in the Field of Human Rights for campaigning for the release of captive children, including her own daughter kidnapped by guerrillas? Source: "Angelina Atyam was honored with a 1998 human rights prize from the United Nations for her work on behalf of thousands of kidnapped children in Uganda. Atyam's own daughter disappeared one day in 1996 along with dozens of other girls from her school, taken by the militia forces of a fundamentalist Christian guerrilla group operating in northern Uganda."

- Comment: Appropriate for March 8, International Women's Day

Interesting life and message, on good sources, no copyvio obvious. The hook is fine, also the date. I could imagine shortening the prize name, and finding room to say something about her appeal to fogive. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:42, 2 March 2020 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt: thanks for the speedy review! I did think of a hook talking about her power to forgive, but I felt this hook would work better for International Women's Day, which focuses on women's/human rights. Could you move this to special occasions for March 8 after the bot moves it to the Approved page? Yoninah (talk) 14:57, 2 March 2020 (UTC)
