Sue Miller (cancer activist)[edit]

  • ... that after a mastectomy ended her professional modeling career, Sue Miller assembled a fashion show featuring only womenmodels who had had mastectomies?

  • So in the article the source used for the hook and a lot of other citations is not right, the link and the title do not match - probably a copy and paste error since you have the right article here. MPJ-DK (talk) 03:40, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
  • @MPJ-DK: I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're talking about. Yoninah (talk) 13:03, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
  • Oh, you mean the Westword source? Not sure why that happened. I corrected the link in the article. Yoninah (talk) 21:44, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

Overall: The 25% copyright violation rating is for quotes and common facts that are hard to reword, no issues in that MPJ-DK (talk) 03:47, 26 December 2018 (UTC) Note: The article uses the word "prothesis" which links to a disambiguation page and none of the definitions listed seem to fit the context here. I will not do the source review until you've made the link correction etc. MPJ-DK (talk) 03:47, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

@MPJ-DK: I'm pretty sure the intended word was prosthesis; I've fixed the spelling/link. 97198 (talk) 06:59, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
  • I'm afraid I will have to recuse myself from the remainder of this review. Someone else please pick it up and complete it. MPJ-DK (talk) 23:29, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
  • I have gone through with the Earwig copyvio detector and addressed the copyvio concerns; all it reports now are titles, quotations, names of institutions, events, and awards, or common phrases such as "was diagnosed with breast cancer". None of these are problems. I have also gone through and checked the sourcing, including the sourcing for the hook, which I like. Someone else should be able to sign off on this now.
