will review this, hopefully tomorrow --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:18, 2 June 2017 (UTC)
Interesting facts, on good sources, no copyvio obvious! I like the ALT much better, related to the licensed image. I guess the caption needs to be shortened. - Article: please provide some idea about a time in the lead, - readers will not know when These wars were, and as we have no life data, some hint at the period would be nice. - Do you intentionally link to the beginning of chapter 14 in Revelation, not verse 9? - Could you provide a year (instead of "subsequently") for the mural? Yes it's in the image caption, but should also be in the article. - How about a little lead, summarizing the main points? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:06, 3 June 2017 (UTC)
Requested changes have been made. If you know how to link to specific lines on Wikisource please feel free to make the change; I'm not sure how to do it. Image caption could perhaps be reduced to "Mistress Dorothy Hazard... by Gerald Moira"? Yunshui  09:10, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
Thank you for the changes, I changed the bible source. I don't think we need the painter for the purpose of the DYK section, - different from article. My caption might be ''Mistress Dorothy Hazard and the Women of Bristol ..., 1643.
