 * Symbol question.svg 5x expansion verified. Article is new enough, long enough, no close paraphrasing seen in sources. QPQ done. The hook, though, reads like a headline. The part about her being the first female CEO is much more interesting. Yoninah (talk) 20:00, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Right. I have added an ALT1 above. I am a bit unsure about the phrasing here; since she won't technically become the first woman until she has actually taken over the position (January 2014), but hope the current hook suggestion is OK. Regards, Iselilja (talk) 20:36, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg ALT1 is better; I removed the date to make it punchier. Hook ref verified and cited inline. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 20:47, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
