- ... that despite the risk of being arrested in France, Sophie Kropotkin and her husband returned to the country, as they thought detention in a French prison would be preferable to living in England?

Overall:
As a Brit, I think the first suggestion is more "hooky" than the ALTs. Should the cite in article be moved to the end of the relevant sentence, according to DYK rules? Mike Turnbull (talk) 14:56, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
I've used a colon to place the cite into the sentence.

The article needs at least a couple of sentences describing Peter Kropotkin's ideology and activism. As it stands, readers unfamiliar with his work are going to be left confused by the lack of context explaining the persecution they faced. --Paul_012 (talk) 10:20, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
- Introduced Peter Kropotkin as an anarchist communist theorist. I hesitate to add too much detail about him, as this is a biography about Sophie, not her husband. --Grnrchst (talk) 10:44, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
Right now a sentence in the article reads: "On 21 December 1882, hours after he died, Peter Kropotkin was arrested by the French police; he requested that he be allowed to remain with Sophie until after her brother's funeral, but they denied his request and took him to be tried and sentenced in Lyon." I believe the first he is referring to Sophie's Brother, and will fix it now based on this assumption, but the image of the french police arresting a dead man made me laugh...
