 * ... that Beatrice Hicks, the founding president of the Society of Women Engineers, created a device that made the moon landings possible?

 * Symbol question.svg Just almost everything is ready to go. Your sourcing is good, date is good, both hook facts are mentioned in the article, etc.  Just one problem — it's not been expanded quite 5x.  You took it from 908 characters to 4473, while a 5x expansion would result in an article of 4540 characters.  Could you please add just a little to the article?  You just need 67 characters more.  If you expand it, please drop a note at my talk page.  Nyttend (talk) 03:32, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I think I've squeezed as much out of the sources as could possibly be done, Nyttend. I suppose I will go over it and find one more sentance to stick in. Considering that "I think I've squeezed as much out of the sources as could possibly be done, Nyttend." is (not counting the punctuation) exactly 67 characters, I don't think it'll be too hard. That being said, I find it a bit silly that this is being held up over once sentence's length. I'll get to it, I suppose.  S ven M anguard   Wha?  05:01, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Done. I added 300 characters of prose from a new source that, despite this time being near the top of the Google search listings, I didn't find during the Ada day event.  S ven M anguard   Wha?  05:30, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
