Feedback from New Page Review process

I left the following feedback for the creator/future reviewers while reviewing this article: Thank you for this new article. I wonder if Irene and Hilda Dallas would be a better title per the guidelines at WP:CONCISE. Or each of the sisters could have her own article if enough significant sources can be found for each. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 15:38, 5 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

naming change to Irene and Hilda Dallas

@Doomsdayer520: Thanks I agree! - used both names in full in case there was enough significant sources to generate into two individual articles. Is there enough as it is, duplicating the joint material references and so on? if it is thought not - will do as proposed and change to the simpler name suggested, pending any other edits.

@Kaybeesquared: - I have made the change to the simpler article title. It can be undone if anyone objects. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 19:37, 6 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

new page for each sister

A new page with additional material on each sister has been created for Hilda Dallas and another for Irene Dallas working with IanTheArchivist.

The Irene Dallas page has not included the following section. If another editor thinks this should be added please do so on the Irene Dallas page.

Thank you

Irene Dallas was studying mathematics whilst already in prison and the prison governor wrote, on 9 October 1908, to the Home Office, for permission for her to be sent an Algebra and Geometry and a Trigonometry book, as she was preparing for the Cambridge University entrance examinations. The governor remarked in his letter that 'A lady who runs the risk of imprisonment has presumably calculated that her action is of more importance to her than her prospects of getting into Cambridge.' However permission was given on the 'usual' understanding that the books would be 'donated to the prison library'.<ref>http://books.google.com/books?vid=ISBN978034900775-5Cite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name (see the help page).

Update: thanks to Wbm1058 who has linked the individual sister's pages Hilda Dallas and Irene Dallas to here, so I suggest we retain this suffragette sisters' page as well as the individual ones. Some people may find that useful material as they were often attending events or promoting women's suffrage together. Kaybeesquared (talk) 15:09, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
