New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced. As most sources are foreign-language, unable to check for close paraphrasing. The first hook appeals to me; it's interesting that once you click on the page you learn her dual citizenship. Foreign-language hook ref verified and cited inline. ALT1 is less interesting and too much like your hook forElaine Van Blunk.Image is freely licensed. QPQ done. ALT0 good to go.Yoninah(talk)00:11, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
