- More than long enough, its new enough and its intriguing. Nice hook with notable namechecks. No evidence of close paraphrasing found in the sources I looked at. Sadly image is fair use. Lots of refs including for the hook facts. Well done. Just goes to show you that even in a project dominated by blokes there are still notable women with a story to tell. Well done SS for finding her and stopping her being one of the Women in Red. Victuallers (talk) 15:44, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
