  • DYK checklist template
General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Checked core criteria per above template. Relatively high Earwig Copyvio score of 25.9% is explained by unavoidable duplication of titles and source references; no willful paraphrasing or copyvio found. ALT0 is a bit bloated, even if it is only 148 characters. ALT1 gives the same info with more zip in just 89 characters. This polished bit of DYK work by an experienced editor is GTG. I am surprised it is not earmarked for Women's History Month.Georgejdorner (talk) 02:37, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

  • Hi @Georgejdorner: thanks for the review! I agree that ALT1 is hookier. Yes, this can be moved to the Women's History Month holding area. Yoninah (talk) 11:09, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
  • @Georgejdorner: I'm not crazy about that "apostrophe-s" next to the subject's name. What do you think about this tweak?
  • ALT2: ... that Gilda E. Nardone reaches out to women who, like her mother, became displaced homemakers? Yoninah (talk) 19:24, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
  • I am not particularly flustered by the possessive 's'. I think ALT1 is snappier, but ALT2 is certainly also acceptable.Georgejdorner (talk) 02:39, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
  • I think I've got it:
  • ALT1a: ... that the mother of women's advocate Gilda E. Nardone was a displaced homemaker? Yoninah (talk) 17:33, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
