How about starting the hook with ... that mathematician Grace Bates? Just because she took differential equations in final year does not necessarily implies her a mathematician. Solomon7968 02:17, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
Sure, a bit more context might help the hook. Please review ALT1, which has been created as you suggest. Andrew Davidson (talk) 12:11, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
ALT1 Good to go. Solomon7968 19:42, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
I have pulled the hook due to an issue identified at WT:DYK. Gatoclass (talk) 13:16, 25 October 2013 (UTC)
- The other source goes into more detail and so I have cited that in support of the hook. For the exact page, see "she was the only woman enrolled in this course in her senior year". Andrew Davidson (talk) 08:36, 26 October 2013 (UTC)
