New enough. Long enough. QPQ review done. Both hooks check out with the sources. ALT0 is more interesting to me; both are fine. Earwig and spot-checking show no copyright or close paraphrasing issues. NPOV observed. All paragraphs and hook facts are well-cited. The sentence "book that argued..." seems to be missing something at its start. In the sentence "She left St Christopher's in 1997 same to work...", I do not understand what "same" refers to.

@Edwardx: Thank you for the review, and thanks for picking up my errors – clearly I didn't proofread. They should be fixed now. 97198 (talk) 11:52, 8 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thank you, 97198. Being sometimes lax on proofreading myself, I do understand. Now good to go. Edwardx (talk) 12:38, 8 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
