This article is new, long enough and written in a neutral tone. The sources cited look reliable, and all contain information that validates the story of Berta Persson. There are no copyvio issues, and no close paraphrasing. QPQ is not required. The image appears to satisfy DYK requirements (old, and public domain). The hook is clear, to the point and interesting, and verified in the sources cited; it is the most obvious hook for the page. Good to go. Thank you for a fascinating article!

Many thanks for your kind words Chaiten1, still learning how to do DYKs, so appreciate the encouragement MumphingSquirrel (talk) 21:14, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

MumphingSquirrel, this appears to be close to a WP:ONESOURCE, and as such some passages are uncomfortably close to WP:CLOP territory. It would be better if more sources are found (there are surely some more available in Swedish). ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 18:22, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

Added some extra cites, another editor has kindly done some copy edits. Shout if it needs more attention, but my time may be short in the next few weeks to look at anything - this is the season of domestic duties. MumphingSquirrel (talk) 17:45, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
