Lilly Dubowitz

(

)

~~... that Victor and Lilly Dubowitz, husband and wife, developed a widely used tool for estimating the gestational age of newborn babies?~~ Source: The assessment of gestational age in the newborn infant, developed with Victor and published in 1970, was immediately adopted worldwide as a way of distinguishing small babies who were mature but malnourished from those who were premature and of appropriate small size.

Reviewed: Cyprus in the Eurovision Song Contest 2020
Comment: Open to other hook ideas, including the use of their name in the verb "Dubowitzing".

5x expanded by 97198 (talk). Self-nominated at 09:21, 14 May 2020 (UTC).

Article's expansion exceeds the minimum limit of five-fold. It is nominated for DYK at due time. It is neutral and cites sources inline. No significant text similarities are reported by "Earwig's Copyvio Detector". An infobox is recommended, but not required. The hook is well-formatted and interesting. Its length is within limit.Its fact needs to be cited immeadiately at the end of the related sentence. Please check. QPQ was done. I will approve after the a.m. issue is addressed.

@CeeGee: Thanks for reviewing. I've added a citation to the end of the relevant sentence. 97198 (talk) 14:30, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

Thank you. Everything is fine now. Good to go. CeeGee 15:46, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

Hi, I came by to promote this, but I agree the hook is not optimal. Let's think of something more hooky. Per your suggestion, how about:
ALT1: ~~... that the expression "Dubowitzing the baby" refers to a widely used test developed by a husband and wife team to estimate a newborn's gestational age?~~ Yoninah (talk) 22:12, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

I think that's great! Thanks, Yoninah. 97198 (talk) 02:26, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

You're welcome. Pinging @CeeGee: to review ALT1. Yoninah (talk) 03:01, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Sorry. I cannot find the fact "Dubowitzing the baby"" in the citations given. @Yoninah: Can you help me please. CeeGee 09:52, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

@CeeGee: It's hyphenated at the bottom of the third paragraph in footnote 1: The pioneering Dubowitz tests won international recognition and have been used by generations of neonatalogists, paediatric neurologists and clinicians, using the term "Dubowitzing the baby". Yoninah (talk) 11:46, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

I got it know. I was searching for "--- ing", found now "...ed". Thanks. CeeGee 13:04, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Approved ALT1. CeeGee 13:04, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

@97198, CeeGee, and Yoninah: I came here to promote this but I having issues with the linking. Since an article about Dubowitz Score exists, this seems like a EASTEREGG. Especially since "Dubowitzing" is a reference to both wife and husband, the bold link seems really inappropriate. --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 20:42, 14 June 2020 (UTC)

@Yoninah: Maybe you can suggest another alt. Thanks. CeeGee 09:52, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

ALT2: ... that Lilly Dubowitz, co-developer of the Dubowitz Score to estimate gestational age, also introduced the use of cranial ultrasound and MRI to assess the brains of newborns at Hammersmith Hospital? Yoninah (talk) 11:13, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

ALT2 passes. Thanks Yoninah. CeeGee 12:07, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
