Adding more citations to remove flag
This article has been flagged for its lack of credible citations, and the coding shows that its excessive examples in the bibliography of her published works has also been noted. I am going to be adding some citations in the following days to remedy this. As you'll see from my own user history I have experience in fixing the articles of British academics in the History of Philosophy and Intellectual History; I was involved in serious edits to Quentin Skinner (her husband)'s profile when it had a similar flag (re excessive examples) attached to it. These edits however should only really involve more citations for the existing material, which is correct but not yet credibly footnoted. All the best, G.

 * I have now done what I have set out to do, and have thus removed the tag. The tag never specified particular problems with the referencing but they were, I think, obvious. There was a dead url in the references, the main description attesting to her notability was not adequately cited, and there were numerous other claims that could be easily cited but were nonetheless unreferenced. I have now remedied that and so the first BLP tag has been removed. If you disagree please do look into the edit history yourself. All best, GR. Gulielmus Rosseus (talk) 08:42, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I have now significantly edited and removed the excessive examples listed in the journal articles section, and have this removed the final warning tag there (about indiscriminate, excessive examples in the journal articles section.) If )
 * If anyone wants to look over the edit history for that and has any comments I would, of course, be grateful. Significantly, the articles are now listed with a view to providing examples of the kind of historical work alluded to in the main body of the article, where before it was an exhaustive list of e every single publication she had written and even translations thereof.
