  • Long enough, new enough, adequately referenced, QPQ done, no copyvio detected via Earwig. Article has been tidied up by a number of editors (including myself) to be fit for mainpage exposure. The photo has a personality rights warning template and I don't know whether that would possibly affect its ability to be shown on the homepage. ALT1 doesn't really do it for me, but both hooks are adequately referenced. That said, I had a read of her inaugural blog post where she says: "My Nobel prize still eludes me, sadly, but I figure I have maybe another 25 years (I’m generally an optimist) to sort that out." The article creator might want to consider adding this to the article and that may be the basis to an even better hook when combined with the correct 2014 prediction. But that's entirely optional; the original hook is good as is. Schwede66 20:40, 9 February 2020 (UTC)
