 * Symbol confirmed.svg Okay, you hooked me with ALT2. The other two point more to her accomplishments, but are less "hooky" IMO. (for the record, both are sourced and accurate). Created on Nov. 5, nom on Nov. 7/new enough. 10051 char/long enough. Neutral. In-line citations. No apparent copyvios. Hook at 130 char/under maximum. Cited immediately following. QPQ done. Per commons photo is in PD. Fascinating article, long overdue. Bravo! GTG. SusunW (talk) 15:42, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
