Olena Shevchenko
Shevchenko, 2001
- ... that Olena Shevchenko (pictured) is "probably the most famous lesbian in Ukraine"? Source: "Олена Шевченко, мабуть, найвідоміша лесбійка України." [Olena Shevchenko is probably the most famous lesbian in Ukraine
- ALT1: ... that Ukrainian LGBT and women's rights activist Olena Shevchenko (pictured), who has been attacked multiple times, wears a GPS alert device to notify colleagues when she is in danger? Source: "Since 2017, Olena is a participant in our security programme, the Natalia Project. She has received tailor-made security training and been equipped with an alarm with a GPS transmitter. In the event of an attack, she can activate the alarm, which sends a signal with her geographical location to Civil Rights Defenders and Olena’s closest colleagues"

Overall: 
This article looks good, and the hooks are cited and interesting. ALT1 is better imo because hooks that just say "X is famous" aren't that interesting unless they say why. And the GPS is also an interesting way to keep safe. (Note to promoter: although the hook source only mentions one attack on Shevchenko, there are multiple violent incidents mentioned in the article). The copyvio on Earwig is a false positive because of some very long organizational names. Hopefully this can run before Pride Month is over. BuySomeApples (talk) 04:44, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
- I'm going to take ALT0, if only because ALT1 is sourced to the company itself bragging about its services and I'm not inclined to give it that publicity. At least, not without secondary sources signaling importance. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 11:45, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
