This article is new enough and long enough. The image is appropriately licensed, the hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. I was surprised and puzzled to see that she was born in Germany, but I see from the source that she was not an ethnic Native American, but was adopted into the community she studied. Perhaps you could mention that in the article. Just waiting for a QPQ to be done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:27, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
