  • Length, date checks out. No QPQ needed. Image on commons, PD. But the reference link is a dead link? Also, a far more interesting ALT1 would be ... that The Lily (pictured) was the first U.S. newspaper edited by and for women? --Soman (talk) 03:58, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
  • I have repaired the link and I'm OK with the alt that you suggest. Thanks for the review. I have found quite a few new articles by non DYK regulars - hopefully others will get assistance too. Cheers Victuallers (talk) 07:33, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
  • Thanks. Offline ref accepted AGF. good to go. --Soman (talk) 12:23, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
