Overall: 
Meets criteria, no copy-vio detected, AGF on offline sources (the two online sources check out). Article is well written and neutral; I've fixed some v v minor typos. I did wonder whether the hook could be made more concise; something like:
- ALT1: ... that the first election in Baden to allow women to vote resulted in nine women being elected to the state legislature?
That leaves out the 1919 date but puts the emphasis on the interesting part of the hook. Interested in your views on this @Jon698: however also happy to approve the hook as currently worded. Cheers, Chocmilk03 (talk) 21:23, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
- @Chocmilk03: Yeah I like your version of the hook better. Jon698 (talk) 21:30, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
