Nice article, sorry it had to wait so long. I will post my comments soon. Cheers, Sainsf (talk · contribs) 18:24, 18 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay here are my comments. Well-written and broad in coverage. No dablinks, broken external links or copyvio concerns. Just a duplink JiuJiang in Personal life. Sainsf (talk · contribs) 17:27, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Refer to her as either Lucinda or Combs consistently throughout the article (Except in lead where you take her full name). Similarly say King or Leonora King. Y
Combs parents died leaving her orphaned at a young age Is it known when?
You may link 'theological' Y
perform her domestic and academic responsibilities while attending medical school I would just say 'domestic responsibilities' as medical school refers to her academic responsibilities Y
She drew the attention of the Methodist women in Philadelphia who helped her continue her studies What was the outcome of that?
Previously inhabited by multiple households, it is unclear whether the residents evacuated on their own volition or if they were pressured off the land by the WFMS. Needs an inline citation Y
Soon after their marriage, the couple moved to the southern part of China to a place known as JiuJiang. Earlier you refer to the place as Kiukiang. This needs consistency. Y
The 'Personal life' heading looks a bit unsuitable to me as Early life should also be part of it in some ways. I think it would be better to merge Personal life and Death under a new heading 'Later life and death'. Y
"A bright day at the Peking Hospital", "The Peking Hospital", and "A morning's visit at the Peking Hospital" These should be in title case and probably italics. Y

Hi Sainsf! I know that ~riley is not easily able to get to Wikipedia, so I wanted to help out since one of my students worked on this. I'll put check marks by the (applicable) things that I've worked on. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:21, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not seeing anything about her parents' death date. It looks like much of her early life is lost to the passages of time, so unless ~riley can find something I would have to assume that it's not easily discovered or available. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:27, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I've removed the sentence "Previously inhabited by multiple households, it is unclear whether the residents evacuated on their own volition or if they were pressured off the land by the WFMS.", as it's not in the prior source. It can be re-added if a source is found. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:32, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your assistance, Shalor. ~riley's absence wouldn't be an issue in promoting this article, we just need to agree on the few remaining points. If you are fine with those two suggestions I will be happy to go ahead and do the changes myself in case you are unable to. Let me know soon, cheers :) Sainsf (talk · contribs) 04:35, 22 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No worries, Sainsf! I wanted to track down something with one of the titles in it to see how the works were published - if they were published with only the first letter and location names capitalized, then I'd want to preserve the prior version of the titles. It ends up that the title of the works were in all capitals, so I went ahead and capitalized them. It looks like these were articles in a newspaper called The Heathen Woman's Friend, so I don't think they should be italicized. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 14:49, 22 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I've fixed the personal life one - I'm not sure about the note about the women helping her, as I can't really locate a source for that straight away. I'm going to ping the instructor for the class (@Breamk:) in case he may know of one, plus so he can see the progress on the nomination. I think that takes care of everything?

Great job Shalor :) The article is now ready for promotion. Cheers, Sainsf (talk · contribs) 16:09, 22 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
