I worry about this hook's WP:DYKINTerestingness, as it is entirely dependent on knowing its names (I only know of Joanna Southcott because I'm distantly related to her). What else have you got?--Launchballer 08:38, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Lajmmoore and Kentuckian: ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 17:02, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The WP:DYKINTerestingness is not from the names mentioned. who are both notable, and Southcott is known to some (who are not related to her). The key phrase here is "spiritual child". If Miss X is the spiritual child of Miss Y .... then its intriguing. Adding "prophet" in front of Joanna would be better but I'm not sure "I'm (personally) not impressed" is a valid reason. If there is no offered alternative then this should proceed as approved IMO, no reason to stall it. Victuallers (talk) 10:55, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Let's see an ALT to that effect.--Launchballer 22:41, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
How about:
ALT1 ... that suffragette Ellen Oliver (pictured) recognised "daughter of God" Mabel Barltrop as the spiritual child of prophet Joanna Southcott? Source: "on Valentine's Day 1919 Ellen Oliver declared Barltrop to be 'Shiloh'" - Shiloh was the name given to Southcott's spiritual children https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=VhOMDwAAQBAJ&newbks=0&printsec=frontcover&pg=PA168&dq=ellen+oliver+bedford&hl=en&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=ellen%20oliver%20bedford&f=false
