Marit Ruth edit

  • ... that gold medal sit-skier Marit Ruth has devised a Segway-based vehicle that can be used by people without legs?
  • Comment: She is now called Marit Sundin but she became famous under the name Marit Ruth - not sure which name to use. I amn trying to get a picture or video from Marit's company. Please note that International Women's Day/month runs at the same time as the Paralympics.

  • It looks like Marit Ruth gets the English-language hits for her Paralympic feats, while Marit Sundin gets the Swedish-language hits for her current company. I think the page name is fine as is. Article is new enough, long enough, adequately referenced, no close paraphrasing seen (using Google Translate). Hook is hooky and foreign-language hook ref AGF and cited inline. QPQ done. Good to go.

  • Should I move this to the holding area for March? Yoninah (talk) 23:27, 23 February 2014 (UTC) Please do Yoninah. I'm chatting with this lady at the moment trying to get a picture or video or her invention and it may take time for her to understand about our licenses etc etc. Fine to for March 9th I think. (ie the month) Thanks! Good night Victuallers (talk) 23:37, 23 February 2014 (UTC)
