• New enough, long enough, and mostly well sourced, but thepeerage has been considered unreliable and is deprecated as a source; see Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources#Self-published peerage websites. The two footnotes to thepeerage should be replaced with something better. QPQ done. Earwig found no copyvio. Interesting hook, adequately sourced. Image is PD and usable for DYK. Once the thepeerage sourcing issues are fixed, this should be ready for DYK. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:40, 8 November 2021 (UTC)

• David Eppstein, Thanks very much - I hadn't realised the peerage was deprecated, my bad. Will fix it this week and ping you. Lajmmoore (talk) 09:05, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

• @David Eppstein: - I've removed those references now, and know for future, thanks very much. Lajmmoore (talk) 12:01, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
  • Good to go after reference cleanup. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:48, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

• @Lajmmoore: is she "travelled" or "well travelled"? can't access the source. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 09:51, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

• Theleekycauldron, the source says "well travelled", but if you think it's clunky we can paraphrase? Lajmmoore (talk) 10:01, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
  • @Lajmmoore: no problem with the hook, but the article says "travelled", not "well travelled", so that should be cleared up. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 10:03, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

*** LOL @ me - I misremembered, thanks for checking! I've changed the hook now. Lajmmoore (talk) 10:05, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
