  • @Jon698: It seems you were only using your primary source to talk about her political career. I added a lot more about her business and philanthropic activities. She sounds like quite a doer. Maybe you can take one of the "firsts" and add it to something else from her career to make a better hook. Yoninah (talk) 16:34, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I tried to come up with a hook that highlighted her philanthropical activities, but none of the things mentioned in the article appeared to be broadly appealing. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 01:35, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
That sounds a lot better. Would you want to be listed as a co-contributer for this nom? Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 03:00, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
OK. I've been expanding the article while watching the World Series! Yoninah (talk) 03:07, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I've listed you as a co-expander. We're gonna need a new review for this. Courtesy ping Imzadi1979. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 04:02, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Alt 3 is sourced, but the fact misaligns with what is written in the article. The article doesn't specify that the schedule was on the back, and the hook doesn't specify for which re-election campaign. Both could be tweaked to improve this.

ALT4 good to go, thanks Yoninah, Kingsif (talk) 00:18, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
