Maria Berlinska
Maria Berlinska in 2018
- ... that military volunteer Maria Berlinska (pictured) led the report that let women hold combat positions in the Ukrainian military? Source: https://www.eurozine.com/women-soldiers-in-ukraine/ "Up until just one month ago, women were banned in Ukraine from entering the theatre of war as soldiers.... Berlinska examined the social, financial and legal position of Ukrainian women soldiers ... the law was changed as a result of her study: 25 combat occupations in the army have since been opened up to women." (This quote seems like she did it singlehandedly, actually she was more of an originator and organizer. Though I'm sure she also did part of the work, her name isn't on the report itself as an author, rather as project coordinator.)

Substantial article on excellent sources, Ukrainian sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. I prefer the original hook, as more about her, than that general, and I'd prefer the other image. - Go for GA, says GA! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:18, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
- Do you mean this image? If so, I'm fine with that one as well. If it's all right, I would like to get the DYK as it stands - getting it to GA is a nice idea, and we may well try it, but shouldn't be a DYK requirement, right? Anything else? --GRuban (talk) 00:53, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
thanks for the image which I prefer, more of her, I think, with out the attention-grabbing background. - GA is just meant as encouragement, not prerequisite ;) - I have a pictured hook today with old background, look and listen! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:07, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
