Isabella Forshall

 * ... that although Isabella Forshall did not go to school she gained two university degrees and four postgraduate diplomas?

 * Symbol question.svg Claiming for review, but I would suggest that the hook may be modified since the hook gives no clue as to what Forshall became best known for (which apparently is medical-related fields). Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:31, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
 * On the other hand, the article meets requirements, is free from close paraphrasing, has an interesting hook which is verified and cited inline, and a QPQ has been accomplished. Just awaiting a response from the nominator and this should be good to go. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:03, 14 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the review. I've added, as ALT1 and ALT2 the fact that she was a surgeon, which I agree makes the hook more interesting, Source remains the same.
 * ALT1:... that although surgeon Isabella Forshall did not go to school she gained two university degrees and four postgraduate diplomas?
 * ALT2:... that that although surgeon Isabella Forshall did not go to school she gained two university degrees and four postgraduate diplomas in medicine and surgery? Papamac (talk) 06:17, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Both are much better, but I think ALT1 would be the preferable option due to the lack of redundancy; I've added an ALT2a below. I've wikified them as well to make them suitable for DYK. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:06, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
 * ALT2a that although Isabella Forshall did not go to school, she gained two university degrees and four postgraduate diplomas in medicine and surgery?


 * Thanks again for that further improvement. Is it now good to go? Papamac (talk) 08:45, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I think it should. Symbol confirmed.svg Approving ALT1 and ALT2a (the latter just being a revision of ALT2), leaving the final choice to the promoter. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 13:16, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
