Tessa Hughes-Freeland

[edit]
  • ... that experimental filmmaker Tessa Hughes-Freeland describes her work as "confrontational, transgressive, provocative and poetic"?

  • Article is new enough, long enough and uses in-line citations. The hook facts are short enough and interesting. QPQ done. However, the hook facts are problematic. Th original hook is problematic in that it is not clear that the quote comes from Hughes-Freeland; it is on her web-site but it's written in the third-person and isn't attributed to her. The alt hook is not contained in the body of the article and isn't supported by an in-line citation. Cbl62 (talk) 04:42, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
I have struck the main hook as it has no reliable source. I have extended the article and got rid of some of the quotes. The first alt is now sourced. This woman specialised in making films that were designed to shock. Finding a hook should be easy although do remember that its going on the front page, so think about the talk page debate. Copy edit required and a review please. Victuallers (talk) 19:24, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
  • This article is new enough and long enough. The ALT1 hook is acceptable and has inline citations. QPQ has been done and I detected no policy issues. I have added Victuallers name to the credits. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:03, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
