  • @Julia W: Can you just make sure all paragraphs end in a citation and that there are no remaining BLP concerns? I removed or amended some passages that I could not find sources for, or where the sources did not cover the full extent of what is written in the article. HTH. Looks good otherwise.

  • @Samsara: Good call, thank you, I've added in references where indicated. One of the parts you took out I agree with leaving out. Please check over? Julia\talk 13:18, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
  • New reviewer needed; previous reviewer has not responded and indeed hasn't edited Wikipedia since the date of the original review. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BlueMoonset (talkcontribs) 13:25, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

Query DYK rule D1 (WP:DYKDN) requires that the sentence in the article with the hook fact have an inline citation. I have marked it with a {{citation needed}} template. I know you've cited it above, but because it's an offline source and I don't have access to it I can't add it to the article myself. – Reidgreg (talk) 21:23, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

    • Hi Reidgreg, thank you! I've added two references now. One for her having been the editor and the second shows a cover of the magazine to highlight its "salacious" nature. Julia\talk 14:41, 9 November 2018 (UTC)
      • Approved (AGF): Article was new enough at time of nomination, is long enough, neutral, and well-cited with no copyvio detected (AGF for offline sources). Hook is well-formatted, just over 100 characters, neutral, interesting, and supported with an inline citation in the article (AGF for offline source). QPQ verified. – Reidgreg (talk) 18:37, 9 November 2018 (UTC)
