  • Hi Muboshgu, review follows: article created 15 September; article exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; hook fact is interesting, mentioned within article, cited to a reliable source and checks out at source; there's a couple of relatively minor issues with close paraphrasing:
  • "In 1994, Eskind became the first woman to chair the Tennessee Democratic Party" is directly taken from the Associated press article
  • Likewise "the first woman to win a statewide election in Tennessee" could be rephrased; same source
Once they are sorted and a QPQ added this one should be good to go - Dumelow (talk) 15:43, 19 September 2019 (UTC)
  • @Dumelow:, QPQ provided, close paraphrasing resolved. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:07, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
