@Lajmmoore: I don't see how the current hook meets WP:DYKINT: of course a person who specializes in a form of poetry is a poet, even if an unusual one. Do you have any other hook angles? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 04:14, 16 May 2025 (UTC)

Thanks Narutolovehinata5 I proposed this one (which I agree is a bit dull) as I got nervous about proposing other hooks based on her feminism. That said she is a prominent figure, so perhaps I am being too overly cautious? What about:

ALT1 that Saudi poet Huda al-Daghfaq's memoir I Tear the Burqa to See was described as an "existential battle"? In the description of this article https://doi.org/10.21608%2Fjssa.2020.119124 Lajmmoore (talk) 06:27, 17 May 2025 (UTC)

I'd personally just write it as: ALT1a ... that Saudi poet Huda al-Daghfaq's memoir was described as an "existential battle"? I don't think the memoir has to be mentioned by name. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 11:13, 18 May 2025 (UTC)

Thanks, I just put an alt for it in Lajmmoore (talk) 18:28, 29 May 2025 (UTC)

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy compliance:

Adequate sourcing: - Ref 4 doesn't say The Upward Shadow was her first, and the 1993 publication date there conflicts with ref 2 saying it was 1990. Some of the works are uncited, though citing to the work itself shouldn't be an issue.
Neutral:
Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook eligibility:

Cited:
Interesting:
Other problems:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Prose size 2310 B; created two days before nom. Prefer ALT1a per Narutolovehinata5. After some straightforward copyedits (including one I forgot to save before saving the checklist), article is mostly good. @Lajmmoore: fix these issues and I'll approve. ミラP@Miraclepine 19:24, 1 June 2025 (UTC)
