@BuySomeApples: I'll take this one. This is long enough and new enough. QPQ is done and Earwig is clean. The hook wants trimming to ALT0a: ... that Agnes Gallus fled Hungary during the 1956 revolution before becoming a respected artist in Canada? I note that the Globe and Mail obituary is written by her daughter, which I'm not sure is good enough for some of the more self-serving claims the article cites it for and I'd like to see them trimmed before I approve this.--Launchballer 14:35, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks @Launchballer:! I trimmed it so the obit is only used in the "Early life" section but not her career. I also made that section a lot shorter so it's just basic biographical details. BuySomeApples (talk) 17:40, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
Let's roll. Also, do consider adding the image to the nom - there's about three women on Approved and I plan on promoting one soon.--Launchballer 17:53, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- Actually I'm not so sure about the picture @Launchballer: I think it might be copyrighted because it's the same photo from the obituary. I'm going to ask Harrietcyy about it and probably tag it for deletion unless there's a good explanation. BuySomeApples (talk) 22:06, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
