Comment: As can be seen here, the article was created by Neville13 (talk·contribs) on 26 August 2018 as a one-line stub,[3] and subsequently on the same day it got tagged for proposed deletion.[4] I rescued the article, and developed it. MBlaze Lightning 12:36, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
5x expanded by MBlaze Lightning (talk). Self-nominated at 12:36, 30 August 2018 (UTC).
Overall: Strictly speaking this is a 5x expansion (I've boldly changed your nomination), for which it of course meets the requirements. I was concerned whether being second woman out of only seven is remarkable, but the Times of India thinks so. Ready for promotion. Kim Post (talk) 19:49, 20 September 2018 (UTC)
