... that professor Bronwyn Law-Viljoen has been involved in editing multiple books on the architectural history of the Constitutional Court of South Africa?Source: "Now Bronwyn Law-Viljoen, who edited the earlier David Krut publication on the building of the court, Light on a Hill, has put together an elegant volume that combines photographs of the artworks collected in the court and the pieces that are part of its construction. There are also essays by Judge Albie Sachs and the architects, and explanations by many of the artists of the processes involved in the creation of the works." (Showcasing art and justice - News24)- ALT1:... that professor Bronwyn Law-Viljoen became editor-in-chief of a publishing company, co-founded her own independent publishing company, and founded her own bookstore in South Africa?

New enough, long enough, and properly sourced. The hooks feel a little unexciting to me, and their wording could be tightened up (why "has been involved in editing" when "has edited" would work better? what information does "her own" add to the second hook?) but I think they are still within DYK standards. Earwig found no copying. QPQ done. I am not convinced that ALT0 properly reflects the sourced content in the article: which "multiple books on architectural history" does the article state that she has personally edited? Is Light on a Hill or Art and Justice on architectural history? The article doesn't say so. Is she listed as editor for those books? Instead, ALT1 is properly sourced, so good to go with ALT1. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:30, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
- I'm fine with you changing the wording of the Alt if you feel it can be tightened up, @David Eppstein:. SilverserenC 20:01, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
