– New enough (created 48 minutes ago on December 15, 2021) and long enough (2,624 characters). Is neutral, appropriately cited, and Earwig's copyvio detector detects 25.9% similarity (Violation Unlikely). A QPQ has been done. All the hooks are interesting, neutral, sourced, and appropriately formatted (I added a comma per MOS:GEOCOMMA, though). I like the main hook and ALT3. Upto the prep-builder as to which hook to promote. This nomination meets the criteria. and if you are going to "improve its coverage of people named claudia", I promise that one day, I'll get Claudia Alta Taylor to GA level! – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 11:11, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I didn't know that was Lady Bird's real name—i'd be happy to see you aboard this informal wikiproject claudia! at some point in our wikipedia careers, we're gonna cross the point where you have more GAs than I have articles and ya know what? good on you theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/she) 19:41, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
