Natalya Golitsyna edit
Princess Natalya Golitsyna
... that over her 97 years, Princess Natalya Golitsyna (pictured) acquired the nicknames the "Moscow Venus", the "Queen of Spades" and "Princess Moustache"?In numerous sources, but conveniently all mentioned in this one "Княгиня Усатая (так ее прозвали в старости) - Princess Moustache (so she was nicknamed in old age)", "на балах ее называли «Московской Венерой» - at balls she was called the “Moscow Venus”." "Ей было за девяносто, и к ней приклеилось новое прозвище ― Пиковая дама. - She was over ninety, and a new nickname stuck to her - the Queen of Spades." ([1])

5x expanded by Spokoyni (talk). Self-nominated at 19:47, 19 April 2019 (UTC).
Article is new enough (recent 5x expansion), long enough, neutral, and well referenced. Hook is interesting and supported by Russian sources, accepted AGF (and mostly verified via Google translate). Image is public domain. QPQ is done. No copyvio issues (Earwig reports close matches of some text with two websites, both of which appear to have copied the text from an older version of this article). Good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 05:23, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
