 * Symbol question.svg Article was 578 char at last revision date of 28 November 2014; on day of nomination 3169 char thus > 5x expansion. Subject is written as NPOV, no apparent copyvio and has in-line citations; however sources appear in numerous places to confirm only a part of the line cited. For instance, "During World War II, she was an official war artist, painting portraits of officers such as Adrian Carton de Wiart" is shown as Clarke, but only the part about her being a war artist is cited in Clarke. Hook is interesting and within length boundaries, but only source that states she was known as "Marchioness" is Leese. All others indicate she married a peer but do not state she herself used a title. Clarke, the source used in the hook citation does not state she used a title. Neither does Leese give a time frame, thus time given in Alt 2 is unverifiable in what is documented. Statement on children shows no citation. Are the newspaper articles on-line? Links to all go to a wiki page and not the Times itself. Rework citations so that sources verify information in sentences and we should be GTG with Alt1.

 * Thank you very much for reviewing! I have added the source about being an official war artist (I think I must have just accidentally removed it before when I was moving things around). In addition to Leese, the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography (Sykes) indicates she had the title Marchioness of Queensberry. But neither Leese nor Sykes give a time frame either, so I am fine striking the ALT2 hook. I have sourced the children. I am unsure about the newspaper citations, as they were already in the article when I began editing it. I will work on addressing the QPQ soon. Thanks!  Ruby  2010/  2013  02:00, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
