QPQ:
Overall: @Ktin: Great article and mostly everything checks out, I added a bit more using the sources you provided. A very talented and outstanding individual, I'm from Vancouver and I've never heard of her, so glad to be learning more about her and I'm glad to be reviewing her DYK nomination! A tiny nitpick, the source says she's the first Canadian woman to have obtained the CRTC broadcast license, and I know the CRTC is Canada only, to the best of my knowledge, but it would probably be a bit more reassuring to put "Canadian woman" in the hook even if its a given. You are very welcome to provide feedback on this though, and it won't hold up the nomination, but I would like to hear your thoughts on the issue. I'll be waiting for your QPQ, ping me when you're able to do so! Ornithoptera (talk) 07:27, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for this review Ornithoptera. We can go for the revised hook as requested. I have struck ALT0 and have retained ALT1 which is consistent with your request. Also, QPQ is now completed. Thanks for your patience. Ktin (talk) 04:21, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Awesome, great work! You are very welcome Ktin, best of wishes to you and great work as always! Ornithoptera (talk) 09:02, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
