Nadia Fink

• ... that Nadia Fink (pictured) sought to oppose Disney Princesses and Barbie dolls by writing the Anti-Princess Series? Source: Smink 2015: "Fink admits that the intention of this new series was to stand up to the classic models that girls admire: Barbie and the Disney princesses." ("Fink admite que la intención de esta nueva colección fue hacerle frente a los modelos clásicos que admiran las niñas: Barbie y las princesas de Disney.")
  • ALT1:... that although Nadia Fink (pictured) originally deemed poet Alfonsina Storni's life "too tragic" for inclusion in her Anti-Princess picture books, she later released one about Storni nonetheless? Source: Smink 2015: "Some of the women considered, such as the Argentine poets Alfonsina Storni and Alejandra Pizarnik, had lives "too tragic" to recount to a child audience." ("Algunas de las mujeres consideradas, como las poetisas argentinas Alfonsina Storni y Alejandra Pizarnik, tuvieron vidas "demasiado trágicas" como para contar a un público infantil.") Hormilla 2020: "Placing women such as Frida Kahlo, Violeta Parra, Juana Azurduy, Alfonsina Storni, and many others who are part of the historical tradition of our continent as protagonists of these children's stories, is an example of how to defend the regional against the global." ("Ubicar como protagonistas de estos cuentos infantiles a mujeres como Frida Kahlo, Violeta Parra, Juana Azurduy, Alfonsina Storni, y muchas otras que forman parte de la tradición histórica de nuestro continente, resulta una muestra de cómo defender lo regional ante lo global.")
    • ALT2: ... that picture books in the Anti-Princess Series by Argentine writer Nadia Fink (pictured) define words like "dictatorship", "surrealism", and "revolution"?

Interesting series, on good sources, Spanish sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. - Having said that, I see several problems. Nadia Fink should have an article. (No chance she'd be pictured without an article.) We should probably say "Argentinian" or "in Spanish", given that German-sounding name. I think we should mention the illustrations. I believe the first hook is saying almost nothing (unexpected), and the second deviates too far from the series aspect. - The image is licensed and attractive, so I hope for an article about the author which could be short. Thoughts, Bobamnertiopsis? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:03, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Gerda Arendt. It's been a busy week but I'm going to try to craft an article on Fink this weekend. Will let you know when that's done. —Collin^{t c} 00:46, 21 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Alright! Created and am also nominating Nadia Fink for consideration here (I still need to complete a QPQ for it). I've struck ALT0 and ALT1 in favor of ALT2 which I think is more tantalizing, unexpected, and focused on the series. Let me know what you think, Gerda Arendt. Kindly —Collin^{t c} 20:55, 21 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Fine, thank you, Collin. (Call me Gerda ;) ) I'm busy tonight, how is this, you do your qpq and I get back to reviewing the author. ALT2 is fine, but I don't think we need all these links to rather common terms, - just not common to children. I also think name dictator OR tyrant. (And IF links, no redirects please.) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:20, 21 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Second qpq reviewed! —Collin^{t c} 05:13, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

both books and author! Thank you! Author: interesting life, on fine sources, Portuguese and Spanish accepted AGF, the image is great and licensed. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:09, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
