 * Symbol confirmed.svg Created by Victuallers on May 27, 2014 with 2,543 characters of prose as of now. Well supported by inline citations throughout, including the hook. Image is in public domain. For the final, please consider switching the focus from the school founder to the governor if possible (see below). Good to go as is. Thanks,  Poeticbent  talk  22:39, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
 * ALT: ... that Governor Erik Viktor Almquist improved the rights of the Sami people thanks to school founder Maria Magdalena Mathsdotter in Lapland (pictured)?
 * thanks @Poeticbent - hopefully some can tick your alt which I'm happy with after I tweaked it Victuallers (talk) 19:54, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg I actually like the original hook. The article says that Mathsdotter petitioned Almquist for his help; the ALT muddles it a bit by saying he improved Sami rights thanks to her. If you want to put the subject of the article first, could you use something else from the article? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 23:52, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg But the original hook is fine too like I said. Either way, both are equally supported. Poeticbent  talk  12:44, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
