Sibyl Hathaway

edit

5x expanded by Surtsicna (talk). Self nominated at 23:43, 10 January 2014 (UTC).

  • (As reviewer of her successor when he came to DYK, seems right I do this as well) Date and length OK. Expansion sufficient, AGF on the offline source. I will move to the holding area. Good to go for the 13th. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 10:11, 11 January 2014 (UTC)
  • Many thanks for such a prompt review! You might also be interested in the article about William Thomas Collings, which is due to be nominated soon. Surtsicna (talk) 11:36, 11 January 2014 (UTC)
  • Can the word "eccentric" be used in the hook? The only time the word was used in the article was to describe her father, and there was no footnote. --PFHLai (talk) 06:50, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
    • I suppose you mean excluded from the hook? I don't mind removing it if it's considered problematic, but the article says she was described as a "lady of unusual personality" (which is just a euphemism for eccentric). Surtsicna (talk) 07:29, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
