QPQ: Done.

Overall: The article excessively relies on quotations, but since the DYK review does not entail a full policy review of an article like GAN, it will not prohibit this from passing. However, the "inflamed with an intense desire" quote in the lead cannot be said in wiki voice. It is not encyclopedic.

Neither the source provided nor the inline citation in the article supports the hook about a ban on Catholic students. Must be fixed. Ergo Sum 01:14, 14 September 2023 (UTC)

User:Ergo Sum, thanks for the review. I've removed the quote in question and Win has reworded the info about the ban. I've also struck out the first hook and added an ALT hook. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 23:17, 14 September 2023 (UTC)

Ok, those problems have been resolved and the new hook checks out. Ergo Sum 23:34, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
