Stella Abidh

[edit]
  • ... that Stella Abidh is believed to have been the first Indo-Trinidadian woman to become a medical doctor...? Source: "To my knowledge at this time there were few, if any local women doctors, and certainly no local Indian woman who had done medicine." [1], p.125

  • New enough, long enough, neutral, sourced, cited well, hook cited and interesting. No copyvio (a match in the tool relates to a quote). QPQ done. Sabine's Sunbird talk 05:25, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this. The source and article make a point of saying she's believed to be the first woman, so the hook needs to be corrected. If you can add anything more of interest than just being a "woman first", it would be appreciated. I began fixing your book URLs to Google Books previews rather than World Cat. Please fix the rest. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 23:30, 20 April 2019 (UTC)
  • Thanks Yoninah for the feedback and the fixes. I made the rest of the ones you recommended. I had no idea that Google Books was preferable to Worldcat (I was just going with what the tool added, assuming that was the current standard). Guettarda (talk) 13:45, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
  • @Guettarda: thank you. I think Google Books is preferable because it offers previews or snippet views for readers to verify the information. Restoring tick per Sabine's Sunbird's review. Yoninah (talk) 15:18, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
