  • Usernameunique: any particular reason why you frequently use the Italian version of Google Books? I live in Italy (I'm Italian) and Google locate my IP address and redirect me to the .it. I not always realize it. Elisa.rolle (talk) 21:36, 2 September 2017 (UTC)


  • Elisa.rolle Approving ALT0, although I have struck the second portion: one fact is enough, and being the only female pharmacist in Illinois at the turn of the century is surprising if Celia Tirrel graduated from the Chicago College of Pharmacy in 1880. Otherwise new, long enough, in time, sourced, hook checks out (added inline citation), and QPQ done. As an aside, any particular reason why you frequently use the Italian version of Google Books? --Usernameunique (talk) 19:40, 2 September 2017 (UTC)
