Overall: 
Article is new enough, long enough, and is generally well sourced - I've added 2 X [citation needed] where it was unclear to me where the information is from. Article reads as plagiarism free. Hook is interesting, and is cited. I would only want to see ALT0 used, as that actually includes her achievements too! QPQ is done. Ping me when the refs are added! Really interesting to read about her too! Lajmmoore (talk) 09:00, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you, Lajmmoore. Both good points. Locust Valley Cemetery comes from Find-a-grave. The citation was removed by another editor, and I do appreciate that FAG is on WP:RSP, but with an image I thought one might invoke WP:IAR, esp with her husband also there Find-a-grave. As for the Vogue Paris cover, that was from List of Vogue Paris cover models. I have found the actual cover on Ebay, Vogue Paris December 1956, but cannot find a solid source that this is actually her. Looks like we are going to have to remove both bits.

- That's annoying, but yes, looks like they'll need to be trimmed out, and maybe put on the talk page, pending better sourcing. Thanks for doing the investigations. Let me know when you're done with the edits. Lajmmoore (talk) 14:15, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
- Lajmmoore, a bit annoying, but that is Wikipedia editing for you. For uncontentious details in the bio of someone no longer living, we might give such things the benefit of the doubt; however DYK and the WP front page are more rigorous. I have cut both, and added something to the talkpage, as better sourcing might become available in future. Have added a bit more sourced content to "Career" as that section was now looking a bit thin. Edwardx (talk) 18:41, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Edwardx thanks for making those changes and adding a bit more to the article, good to go from me. Apologies for the delay in getting back to you! Lajmmoore (talk) 21:45, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
