- Done. - Chris.sherlock (talk) 12:25, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Do you mean to link to National Council of Women of Australia
- I'm not entirely sure this is the same organisation, I'll check. - Chris.sherlock (talk) 12:25, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- I'm concerned about the prose level of this article, It's good, but I'm not confident that it's up to GA standard yet
- Are the bits below the specific issues? - Chris.sherlock (talk) 12:25, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

- "having in 1899 established a wholesale jewellery and importing business, Frederick Aronson & Co" -> "establishing a wholesale jewellery and importing business, Frederick Aronson & Co in 1899"?

- oops! fixed - Chris.sherlock (talk) 12:25, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- I'm also concerned about comprehensiveness; for example, you write almost two paragraphs about a conflict with Miles Franklin, but put almost no discussion into any other work she did. It seems to me that there would be a fair amount of stuff to add. Eddie891 Talk Work 02:01, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- What sort of material do you think we should add? The Mile Franklin incident was quite significant, give the status of Miles Franklin in Australia. - Chris.sherlock (talk) 12:25, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Chris.sherlock, something about this: and organized and ran the depot which distributed over a million books and magazines during World War I., maybe add something about her as the "original member of the executive committee of the New South Wales division of the British Red Cross Society"? Eddie891 Talk Work 12:30, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
- Chris.sherlock, just a small bit more work to get the article to ga, are you planning on getting to it? Eddie891 Talk Work 13:27, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- I'm so sorry Eddie891, I recently lost my job due to COVID-19 and I'm afraid I have to take a wikibreak. I really appreciate your feedback, I'll action it when I'm back but perhaps it's best to withdraw this GA nomination till I have the time to action your suggestions. - Chris.sherlock (talk) 16:31, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- Chris.sherlock, That's completely fine, and understandable. I will close this as 'failed', but please leave a note on my talk when you have time to come back and address the comments. Really, you have done nice work, and I'd like to see this pass Eddie891 Talk Work 23:46, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
- Eddie891 I think something went wrong because this is now a GA... btw, I really appreciate you taking the time to review the article. - Chris.sherlock (talk) 02:41, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
