Going to claim this review and hoping to finish it within the next few days. As for ALT1, it may be a good idea to mention that Yushchenko is a former Ukrainian president, just in case a reader who is unfamiliar with him comes across this. ALT0 is probably the more interesting hook anyway in this case.

I've tweaked ALT1 as suggested,

Article meets DYK requirements and a QPQ has been provided. I also didn't find any close paraphrasing. ALT1 doesn't have a footnote, so one needs to be provided. There's also a "who?" tag in the "Against" section. Finally, while ALT0 is mostly referenced (assuming good faith for the German source), the sentence about her escaping an arranged marriage lacks a footnote.

Thanks. Although ALT1 is a decent hook and I would not oppose it being promoted, I personally think ALT0 is the more interesting hook in this case. I'm assuming good faith for the non-English sources so we should be good to go now.
