I forgot to leave a notice on the nom's talk page when I reviewed this so I've gone ahead and done that now. I will also leave them a ping here; @Juustila: how does this hook sound to you?

- @Juustila, EytanMelech, and PCN02WPS:
looking at the source seems to undercut the verification – the source cited in this nom explicitly says that
her status as being “the first [Finnish African]” cannot be confirmed as a historical fact.

without action from the nominator, and without a viable hook, I'm not sure that this nomination can proceed. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 00:11, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
