The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Article itself seems fine, expanded adequately and well-cited throughout, but I think the primary hook needs a little work. The article and its citations (assuming good faith on the relevant one used here) discuss her being named for her staff, not necessarily her abilities--I know this might seem pedantic but it's conflating something that might not be inherent. I'm also not sure the lay reader--the average main-page visitor--would be familiair with the "1st c." formatting and so maybe we want to spell out "1st century" here, but that's a minor quibble. ALT1 is perfectly fine though so if we prefer to just run with it then we're good to go, but I'll wait for a response before giving it the tick. 𝄠ʀᴀᴘᴘʟᴇꭗ00:07, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
