  • New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced. However, there is close paraphrasing from the sources which needs to be rewritten in your own words or quoted directly:
  • Source: I play the role of an ambassador between the department, the White House, the Office of Science and Technology, and the leadership in Silicon Valley.
  • Article: Fox played the role of ambassador between the department, the White House, the Office of Science and Technology Policy, and the leadership in Silicon Valley.
  • Source: she previously spent 14 years at the Pew Research Center, directing the organization's consumer-focused health and technology research.
  • Article: Fox spent 14 years at the Pew Research Center, directing the organization's consumer-focused health and technology research.
  • Also, you're putting half of the following source in quotes and the other half not, making it look like the first part is her own words. I suggest rewriting this completely and removing the quotes:
  • Source: The great news is that every structural solution needed to have healthcare reach its full potential has been invented, proven and modestly scaled. It's simply a matter of taking the mindset of an anthropologist/archaeologist to uncover the solution as Fox describes herself in Love Made Visible.
  • Article: She advocated that "any solution needed to have healthcare reach its full potential has been invented, proven and modestly scaled," taking the mindset of an anthropologist or archaeologist to uncover the solution.
  • Regarding the hook itself, I think it would be hookier to leave off that long title at the end and perhaps identify her as a government healthcare executive before her name, or not identify her at all?
  • ALT1: ... that Susannah Fox (pictured) cited the maker movement as a promising source of future healthcare innovation?
  • QPQ done. Image is freely licensed and is the only image in the article. Yoninah (talk) 12:35, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
All fixed, and I've made some further copyedits to clean up the prose. Yes, that is a long and unwieldy title, and I struggled with where to fit it in the hook. The thing is, the impact of the hook is that someone with such a high executive position would be supportive of the maker movement, so I don't think it's good to exclude it completely. Here are a few more possibilities. Antony–22 (talkcontribs) 04:49, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
  • Thank you for taking care of the close paraphrasing issue. No close paraphrasing seen. I think ALT4 is the cleanest choice, though ALT3 is also good. Leaving it to prep promoter to decide. Hook ref verified and cited inline. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 15:21, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
