Janet Wilmshurst

Created by DrThneed (talk). Self-nominated at 19:06, 7 October 2021 (UTC).

  • Note October 12th is Ada Lovelace Day, would be good to have a woman in STEM on the front page (but might be a bit late for this one!). DrThneed (talk) 19:34, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: Yes
  • Interesting: Yes
  • Other problems: No - The hook reuses the language without quotation, it would either have to be rephrased or quoted somehow. Also, I've suggested a cheeky (pun intended) hook that could be used for April Fools' day, if you'd like.
QPQ: Done.

Overall: @DrThneed: We're almost there! Nice work on the article—just have to clear a few things up. theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (they/them) 18:24, 8 October 2021 (UTC)

Theleekycauldron, Thanks for the ALT hook. I hadn't thought of it for April Fool's Day, I have no objections to it - do I need to repost the template in the special holding area for that? And yes I'll take a look another look at the article to make it less CV like (we're having a women in STEM editathon on Tues so I will do it then). Thanks! DrThneed (talk) 23:26, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
@DrThneed: not at all! I'll move the nom to the AFD area after I approve it. Sounds like a plan, let me know! theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (they/them) 23:50, 8 October 2021 (UTC)

Ooops sorry User:Theleekycauldron this one dropped off my to do list, will ping when ready, hopefully tomorrow. DrThneed (talk) 07:22, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
@Theleekycauldron: the article has accumulated a few tweaks from other editors, and I've added more detail about some of the research. Do you still find it too résumé-like? Happy to change further, but you might need to be specific about what to change! Cheers DrThneed (talk) 23:44, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
