Length, history and references verified. I tweaked the hook a bit (it could do with more; I don't think it needs to paraphrase the source so closely) and the article may need some format adjustments, which I can take care of later. Daniel Case (talk) 18:10, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This needs to be referenced - "but changed her professional activities to cultural management and online journalism, when she returned to Khartoum, Sudan." SL93 (talk) 23:28, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done. This statement follows from reference to #defyhatenow webpage that was quoted one sentence before. So I have now placed it at the end of this short paragraph. Munfarid1 (talk) 07:01, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Restoring approval. SL93 (talk) 15:04, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
