Interesting women and art, nicely expanded on good sources, Spanish sources accepted AGF, and I could read the line supporting the hook. Interesting, but can it be worded simpler? Perhaps use MoMA as well-known abbreviation? Please get all references from the lead to the body of the article. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:24, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
@Gerda Arendt: Thank you. I am learning. Lede is summary, no? Think I have that now :) All incorporated into the body now. Yes, perfectly fine with:
ALT1: ... that Ximena Cuevas is the first Mexican videographic artist to have works acquired for the New York MoMA's permanent collection? SusunW (talk) 19:41, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
Yes, - summary - lead - lede - the stuff that even readers with a short attention span should read about a subject. All of it should be referenced in the article, therefore no extra/duplicate ref is needed. Exception: a quote there needs a ref. Wiki-links the first time, - a second time is debatable, - yes when long ago, or when readers might read only a section where it would help. Always in sortable tables, because the order will change, you don't know where "first" will be. - In ALT1, "permanent collection" seems wasted because it appears so late. Would you like this rewording also:
ALT2: ... that Ximena Cuevas is the first Mexican videographic artist whose works were acquired for the permanent collection of New York's MoMA?
  • I learn so much from you. Thank you! Yes, Alt2 is better. SusunW (talk) 22:07, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
