Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Looks good. Nice work. Either hook works. @Silver seren: Not necessary for approval, but were you really not able to find anything on when she was born and died? Aware that IMDb is unreliable, but it lists her as being born in 1899 and dying in 1981 ([1]). Wondering if you can find anything else confirming that. Not required for approval, though.

I mean, I know the dates, but I don't have a source for any of it. I can also find her on Ancestry.com and am 100% sure it is the right person. But, per WP:RSP, that's not a reliable source. Silverseren^C 03:00, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
