... that writer Jeanne Humbert was repeatedly arrested for spreading information about birth control and abortion, after they were banned in France in 1920?
This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:37, 17 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
Hi, I came by to promote this, but I'm having trouble finding the hook fact about the law passed in 1920 and her and her husband's frequent arrests in the source given (footnote 2). Could you point it out to me? Also, why aren't you saying "Humbert and her husband" in the hook? Yoninah (talk) 21:13, 20 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Yoninah: I fixed the reference, which I meant to point to the print source. You can add "Humbert and her husband" if you want, but I didn't want to deal with the prior "subsconscious sexism" complaint that I dealt with from Women In Red when I put a marriage section first in an article because that was what fit chronological order.
