 * Some notes from my sandbox: Thérèse-Mirza_Allix (in Benezit, but also in collections? ) Thérèse-Mirza Allix (1816–1882) was a French painter of portraits. She is known for her miniature paintings on enamel, porcelain and earthenware. Emmanuel Bénézit, Dictionnaire des peintres, sculpteurs, dessinateurs et graveurs date=1939 (Paris) pages=109–110 . Allix, Mlle Thérèse Mirza |website=Database of Salon Artists   Thérése Mirza Allix  |website=Musee Orsay Netherzone (talk) 18:19, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Sorry, it seems like I've accidentally duplicated something you already started. CT55555 (talk) 18:42, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * We are editing at the same time :) we will get this done pronto! Do you happen to know how to make the multi-image pix of her siblings smaller? I don't work with multiple images, so am unfamiliar with the fields. Netherzone (talk) 19:04, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * @CT55555, It seems that Auguste Vacquerie and/or Charles Hugo photographed her siblings, so we may find a photographic portrait of her as well if we look into his archives. Netherzone (talk) 19:46, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Note that https://www.ouest-france.fr/pays-de-la-loire/fontenay-le-comte-85200/le-portrait-de-labbe-garnereau-se-devoile-2768676 calls her just Mirza Allix. CT55555 (talk) 19:47, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I saw that, but haven't gotten around to searching under that name. Also, if she married, she could have a different surname. Netherzone (talk) 19:48, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't have access to all the French sources cited in the French version of this, so I think I've added as much as I can. I think this article already passes the notability threshold, but expect more could be added from French sources that require memberships/passwords/accounts etc. CT55555 (talk) 20:12, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I think it's safe to move it to article space now. She is obviously notable. We can continue to improve it moving forward. Netherzone (talk) 20:14, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * @CT55555, I'm looking on ancestry.com, (which unfortunately we can't use as a source I don't think), however I found a record of her marriage to a Jean Chauvin, and a child, Rosalie Chauvin. The dates seem to match up too. The record states its from the Parroisse St. Nicholas des Champs. Netherzone (talk) 20:34, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Found another record (later) of her marrying a Joseph Julien Quinton. Maybe a second husband? Different middle name, Therese Michelle Allix. Netherzone (talk) 20:39, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Way to go you two. I'd advocate moving all of Possibly's userspace drafts to drafts either for us, or for other eyesballs if we don't have sufficient French. Apologies for being MIA on this recent batch. Holiday travels. But back online and excited to help Star   Mississippi  00:29, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
