• ALT2B: ... that Tsuruko Haraguchi, the first Japanese woman to receive a PhD, helped establish an experimental psychology laboratory at Japan Women's University?

I like Maile66's suggestion, but alos the original hook. Let's combine them! Soman, how does this one look? Mobile Squirrel Conspiracy ( talk) 04:56, 19 November 2015 (UTC)

Reviewer needed to check ALT2B. @ Mobile Squirrel Conspiracy: I really like ALT2B, and am striking the original hook and ALT2 in favor of it. I am also striking ALT3. — Maile ( talk) 13:06, 19 November 2015 (UTC)

New enough, long enough, neutrally written, adequately referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. The first part of the ALT2B hook, about her being the "first", is verified and cited inline. The second part is sourced to a website that my computer keeps blocking because of a virus threat, so I will AGF that fact, also sourced inline. QPQ done. ALT2B good to go.
