Improved to Good Article status by Simongraham (talk). Nominated by Onegreatjoke (talk) at 22:06, 21 April 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Wanda Wesołowska; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

Article is new enough, having been promoted to good article status in the past week. Article is long enough, written neutrally, and cites sources inline. A check with Earwig detected no issues with copyright. QPQ has been done. The hook is properly formatted, interesting, and has an inline citation. Would it be accurate to change "animals" in the hook to "spiders"?; I think it would be more interesting that way. And, not a disqualifying concern, but the second sentence in the lead seems to immediately overshadow her career by mentioning the taxonomist Eugène Simon. Also, the wording "contemporary writer" is rather vague and could be replaced with zoologist or arachnologist. gobonobo ⁺ ^c 15:33, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
