Hi Eddie891. Please note that in accordance with Rule A2 block quotes are not counted in the prose count. At present the article is around 1000 characters long. The quote should also be referenced. The first hook fact needs a citation at the end of the sentence in the article. Otherwise the article is looking good and is on an interesting topic - Dumelow (talk) 19:35, 11 November 2017 (UTC)

- Hi Eddie891. I extended the lead slightly as I was getting the prose count at 1494 characters. Both hook facts check out, I added the inline cites for them in the article as required by the DYK rules. No apparent close paraphrasing noted. One final query, the article is named "Sheila Hibben" but also refers to her as "Cecile" and "Celia". I appreciate all three are variations on the same name, but there should be consistency in the article or an explanation for the difference. Was she known by one name more than the others? - Dumelow (talk) 21:57, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
