Halyna Sevruk

  • ... that Halyna Sevruk was expelled from the Union of Artists of Ukraine in 1968 due to a political letter she signed? Source: [1] "She signs the so-called “letter of 139” directed against restalinization in the country. [...] 'Due to this letter we, together with Alla Horska and Liuda Semykina were excluded from the Artists’ Union like criminals.'"

General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Interesting Ukrainian artist; I enjoyed reading about her. I like the hook. The context of the letter and the issues around it could be expanded but it reads fine as is. I shortened the sentence the hook refers to. The article had a LOT of close paraphrasing from the two sources cited, so I made changes to the text to try to address this. I also created some sections and an external link. I made a lot of changes, so someone else should probably review it again. (This is only my second review) -PMCH2 (talk) 02:17, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
