Length of article and hook are fine and both are well reffed. Experienced authors and the hook is fine although I have added "Dame" so that it would look more obvious in Women's History Month, OK?. Neutral and no obv paraphrasing spotted. Sadly no image. Very nice collaboration which is on the wire but still new by our rules. Thanks. Victuallers (talk) 19:02, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Thank you kindly for doing the QPQ on our behalf - most generous. And you're quite right to add "Dame". In the absence of an image, I imagine that most people would assume that a judge named Lowell would be a man. Edwardx (talk) 19:27, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
