... that Nancy Cappello was described as the "founder of the breast density education movement" for her campaign to inform women about the issue of mammograms failing to detect breast cancer? Source: "Imaging Technology News extends its condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of Nancy M. Cappello, Ph.D., who could be called the founder of the breast density education movement in the U.S...Her doctor told her that the cancer was missed on the mammogram because she had dense fibroglandular breast tissue, a concept that was little-known among patients at that time." (Breast Density Advocate Nancy M. Cappello Passes Away - Imaging Technology News)

- alt1 ... that after Nancy Cappello died, most US states had the breast density inform law she had advocated?

Very new and lots of refs. Its neutral. good sources and Earwig and I cannot detect any close paraphrasing. Ive added a fair use images as her charity doesnt allow pictures to be used anywhere and there are no others free. I have added an alt1 but I cannot approve it. The main hook looks OK and it has a source. Nice work Silver Seren. GTG Victuallers (talk) 11:31, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Silver seren: since ALT0 is pretty similar to the dense breast tissue hook you wrote, would you like to combine them both into a multi-hook? On the plus side, you get the pageviews from both in one hook. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 19:25, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I had thought about it, @Theleekycauldron:, but I decided I wanted the topics to be viewed separately. Dense breast tissue is its own issue I want people to focus on and Nancy Cappello is her own person who I think is important for people to know about. I don't want to have that jammed into a single hook. Silver seren^C 21:40, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Promoter's commment to @Silver seren: roger that!
