WikiProject Women in Green/20-Minute Article Assessment
I'm doing a 20-Minute Article Assessment per Moriwen 's request at Wikiproject Women in Green. Assessing on the six Good article criteria I'd say this article could become a GA with a bit more work to pull it into shape, comments below Mujinga (talk) 10:46, 4 October 2023 (UTC)


 * article is broad/stable/focused, one image which has a note saying "template without license parameter: please specify why the underlying work is public domain in both the source country and the United States"


 * verifiability

- on a quick look sources seem generally good, I might query whether https://web.archive.org/web/20060405195403/http://www.users.csbsju.edu/~eknuth/xpxx/beguines.html is reliable at a review

- link 3 is at the moment entirely hyperlinked - ah i see it's a ref that needs updating into one of the modern styles ... this isn't necessary for GA level but it'd be a good idea nevertheless to update the referencing


 * prose

- the article needs pulling into paragraphs rather than sentences and the lead can be expanded to better summarise the article

- bit confused about her dad, "he sent her to become an oblate at a Cistercian convent he had founded at Bloemendaal" which makes him seem like a senior religious person, but later on he's a lay brother? maybe introduce his work when you first mention him if possible?

- Beatrice is associated with the mulieres religiosae, an emerging thirteenth-century group of women - these women were in Belgium? across Europe?

- possibly reflecting a tendency to bipolar disorder.[13] - suggest simplifying to "indicating bipolar disorder" or suchlike

- middle dutch can be linked on first mention in text
