Created by Stone Lantern Two (talk). Nominated by Innotata (talk) at 04:48, 20 October 2014 (UTC).
The notability of the subject is not proven by only one source. Yoninah (talk) 13:29, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- The further reading establishes her notability. —innotata 15:37, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- So why not cite those other sources in the text of the article? Please see Rule D12. This is not an obscure topic, but a BLP. Yoninah (talk) 19:32, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- I'll ask the article creator if they can do so, but I don't have access to any. —innotata 19:56, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Actually, I found one of them on Google Books, and cited it inline. That good enough? There's no specified number, and there are not a lot of easily available English-language sources. —innotata 20:04, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
Thank you. I did some more work on the article, copyediting and reference formatting, and added another ref. It's okay as a start-class article now. Article was nominated 8 days after creation, which I'll accept. New enough, adequately sourced, no close paraphrasing seen. The first hook looks the best to me; hook ref verified and cited inline. No QPQ needed for non-self-nom. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 23:56, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you for your request, Yoninah, and your responding to the request, Innotata. I will try to insert more sources, etc., as I learn my way around the Wikipedia edit process. Stone Lantern Two (talk) 00:09, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- It's certainly fine to add foreign-language sources; just translate the title of the source in the citations (see WP:Citation templates). It would be nice to find something that says how famous/respected she is. Yoninah (talk) 00:23, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
