The article is long enough and new enough. The hook is directly cited. A QPQ has been completed. The image is properly licensed. I assume good faith on the New York Times reference because it won't let me read it without subscribing. Either hook is fine. SL93 (talk) 20:29, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
- This would be a good lead hook for International Women's Day on March 8th. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:31, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
