I followed a few sources to confirm they work and lead to updated information. Looks great. T.o.wgs (talk) 20:09, 3 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The inclusion of a section here on the National Council of Women Voters is a nice improvement. That organization is given surprisingly little attention in histories of the women's suffrage movement. Flexnor's Century of Struggle gives it a single sentence. DuBois's Suffrage doesn't mention it at all. For that very reason, however, I am moving and condensing the material about the NCWV in this article to bring it more into balance with the amount of material about other organizations that are given more prominence in standard histories of the movement. I am also removing all material about the NCWV from the lead section because that section needs to be limited to an outline of the main parts of the article. More detailed information about this interesting organization should go in a separate article dedicated to that organization. Bilpen (talk) 16:07, 18 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
