New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. QPQ done. Regarding the hooks, ALT0 is very interesting; hook ref verified and cited inline. However, I would write it this way for clarity:- ALT0a: ... that Doris Bergen holds Canada's only endowed chair in Holocaust history?
- ALT2 does not seem accurate; the source says her parents were Mennonites, but mentions nothing about her. If another source cannot be found, that fact should be edited in the article. Yoninah (talk) 23:02, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: On page 142 and 143 she specifically talks about being Mennonite. A quote from the source even specifically says she was introduced as "a Mennonite farm girl from Sask." HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 03:42, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
