    General: Article is new enough and long enough
    Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
    Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
    QPQ: Done.
    Overall: @Jishara: Article length and age are good, no copyvio or plagiarism concerns. I find ALT0 and ALT1 the most interesting. My only notes are: quotes must have citations (even in the lead) and i fell like the article is lacking in hyperlinks, especially in the "Biography" section. Other than that, everything looks good, great job! Approved. 1timeuse75 (talk) 16:34, 24 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

    Birth/death

    [edit]

    @Jishara: It seems to me the claim currently made that Maxa's birth year is disputed lies in the fact that two quoted sources (Snellings and Pierron) cite different years, but this would be a violation of WP:SYNTH: there is no source explicitly stating that her birth year is uncertain. I had a quick look at the French Wikipedia article on Maxa, which mentions exact birth and death dates (20 August 1892 and 19 September 1970) with a primary source. Could we not also use this source to conclusively establish Maxa's birth and death dates? — RAVENPVFF · talk · 15:02, 27 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

    Removed the WP:SYNTH line, great pointout. The primary source they're referring to though doesn't appear to be functional at all - none of the archives are working for it, nor is the main link. Jishara (please ping upon response) (talk) 15:24, 27 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
