  • "1880[1] in" you can push that ref to the end of the sentence with the other two.
  • "from the area near" does "the area" add anything?
  • "the Normal School " why capitalised?
  • "century, graduating in " -> "century, and graduated in "
  • "mentored her education and" don't think "education" is required.
  • "Svoronos' -> Svoronos's
  • "yesterday…”" -> should be a non-breaking space before ... and avoid curly punctuation.
  • "Service.[12][2][a] I" I normally go footnote first, then references in numerical order.
  • "the 3-day" three-day.
  • " the Lyceum Club of Greek Women at " overlinked.
  • "Arranging the exhibition..." avoid single sentence paras.
  • "Selected works" full stops after each line not required.
  • "4ου-9ου" en-dash.
  • 81-83, pp.73-91 -> 81–83, pp. 73–91
  • "Florou 2016 [12][2] refer" the whole footnote needs reference, and these are out of order.
  • Ref 6 pp.

That's all I have. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 15:26, 7 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Thank you The Rambling Man! I have fixed almost all of these, including checking all the sources and rewriting the footnote to correct/clarify the date issue. In checking on the capitalisation of 'normal school' I also found that this in fact also refers to the Arsakeio, not a separate school, so I have rewritten that part too. The only comment of yours I'm not sure about is re the link for "the Lyceum Club of Greek Women" - as far as I can see the hyperlink does not extend to the "at"?

  • ... that Anna Apostolaki, the first Greek woman to work as a professional archaeologist, was also a feminist educator who promoted women's traditional crafts?

General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

  • Adequate sourcing:  
  • Neutral:  
  • Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:   - Earwig picks up some similarities with the TrowelBlazers post (which is cited as a source). Some of these are quotes or titles and don't give rise to concerns, but out of an abundance of caution I think "the first woman to work professionally in the field of archaeology in Greece" and "was particularly interested in increasing the visibility of [women's participation in society]" should be rephrased. For the first one, I'd suggest replacing with the wording used in the hooks ("the first Greek woman to work as a professional archeologist"). Earwig also picks up similarities with this article but having reviewed these I can't spot any concerns.
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
  • Cited:  
  • Interesting:  
QPQ: None required.

Overall:   Article is new enough (promoted to GA on 8 September) and long enough. Well-cited (as would be expected for a GA). I think both hooks are good and interesting. QPQ not required as the user has only 2 existing DYK credits. It's a really great article on an interesting subject, well done. The only points are the similarities with the sources noted above, which I'd hope would be easy to rework. @Eritha: please ping me once this has been done.

Thanks for flagging those up @Chocmilk03:! I've rewritten both of those sentences slightly, hope it looks ok now! Eritha (talk) 06:57, 10 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
