Overall: Interesting Good Article about a partisan from Umbria, which I enjoyed reading. The article is new and long enough, is neutral, well sourced, and Earwig could not detect any plagiarism, the picture is in public domain, QPQ has been done. The only little issue is about the hooks (which are sourced as well): all three are basically variations of the same one. Being Italian, I read all the sources, where there is plenty of information for other hooks: would it be possible to write another hook independent on the first three, maybe integrating the article?

@Alessandro57: Being Italian definitely gets you brownie points, however, as an honourary Piemontese, I'll excuse your support for Roma, but as a Bruin, being a Trojan is simply intolerable. :) Thanks for the review, made something trying to cover a few of the interesting points. Let me know what you think. Salve, --Goldsztajn (talk) 16:35, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
@Goldsztajn: Are you a Bruin? That's why this article is so short! :-) Honorary Piemontese? I hope that you are not a supporter of Juve, this would be really too much...I enjoyed the article also because my father was Umbrian and partisan too (but he fought around Spoleto): maybe he knew her! About the hook, it is slightly under 200 chars, so to be sure that our DYK censors accept it I would shorten as in ALT3b. What do you think about it?
I'll wait till this gets a green light before giving you my real opinion of Trojans! Sorry, I didn't check the character count, I'm ok with the change but can we pipe OVRA with "fascist police"? Personally, I think better to have as few links as possible, which was why I didn't mention OVRA in the first place. --Goldsztajn (talk) 17:22, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
OK, I will take the risk :-) Good to go with a (personal) preference for ALT3c. Alex2006 (talk) 18:18, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
