Overall: Nice article. If I were promoting, I would unlink "prison escape" and move it to to the end: "...Peter Kropotkin's escape from prison". ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 13:27, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

@AirshipJungleman29 and Grnrchst: Question: our article says she "helped" organize. Do you think we are ok to promote without "helped"? Lightburst (talk) 16:01, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

I'm fine with keeping it as is, although I also wouldn't object to changing it to say "helped to organise", in line with the article. For the record, the source says she was a participant in organising his escape, but doesn't name any other names, so I don't think saying "organised" rather than "helped to organise" is inaccurate. --Grnrchst (talk) 16:09, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
