- Philepitta , thank you! Interesting life. I'm going to review later today today. Please link her (to birth place, university ...). --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:54, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
Now: on good sources, no copyvio obvious. I like all hooks, and can't decide. How about a combination? The first two stay too much in Liberia, and scientific. Some of that within what ALT2 says, perhaps? I can't do it for you, or could not review it. Please check my copy-editing, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:15, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you so much Gerda Arendt for the edits to the article and for the thoughtful review! I will think more about how to revise the hook. Philepitta (talk) 02:54, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
It's been over three weeks since the review; at this point, since there isn't anything wrong with any of the hooks, it's time to get this moving again and approve one or more of them unless there's something clearly wrong with the article or the hooks.

My choice is ALT2, for the international connection which is quite remarkable. Don't miss the video, anybody.- My combination would be:
- ALT4: ... that Agnes Nebo von Ballmoos transcribed, arranged, and conducted traditional Liberian music, and led her university choir in concerts, including at Lincoln Center?
- Philepitta, you can still suggest changes.--Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:58, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
