Ruth L. Bennett

Created by Dwkaminski (talk). Self-nominated at 17:53, 19 May 2022 (UTC).


General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: I am not clear on QPQ, is there easier way to check QPQs? The rest DYK seems good. Secondly Ruth L. Bennett seem to have died 75 yrs back so still her copyright free image not available?. As mentioned above, I took on to review this one since I do promote the article Women's shelter for expansion. Thanks and cheers.

  • Bookku Dwkaminski The article says "By 1940, the Bennett House had provided shelter for over 2,000 women and girls in need." and the source says "By 1940 the Bennett House had sheltered more than 2,000 girls and young women and there taught them the value of self-respect, decency, and independence." I don't see where "black" is mentioned. SL93 (talk) 18:43, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
    • SL93 Bookku Another reference in the article Documenting Oral Histories of Ruth L. Bennett contains the following "In Chester, there are two places named after her: the Ruth L. Bennett House and the Ruth L. Bennett Homes. The Ruth L. Bennett House is the original house where Bennett took in African Americans looking for shelter during the Great Migration."

      • Dwkaminski That source should also be used for that sentence and "black" should be added to the article. SL93 (talk) 21:50, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
