Created by Chidgk1 (talk). Self-nominated at 15:59, 28 September 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Hoang Thi Minh Hong; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

  • @Chidgk1: New enough and long enough. QPQ present. I think the article needs more prose work as it is awkward in places like you might expect from a translation (three examples below). I am looking at this article and finding the hook uninteresting because it begs the question "how" or "why". More information about Hồng's body of environmental work/activism would really help this hook. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 16:16, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • "a dynamic local non-profit organization" seems you translated a WP:WEASEL word there
    • Ms. Hồng we don't use "Ms." and "Mr." in this context
    • about the arrest of a well-known environmental campaigner in Vietnam We know who this is; why does this text dance around it?
I will edit the article further - if you or anyone else has suggestions for a better hook I will be glad to hear them Chidgk1 (talk) 18:27, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
      • Hmm... The structure of the article makes a good hook hard because there's things that would be BLP vios in a hook and things that would be really puffy. Maybe maybe... I can't verify this as a hook as the source is in Vietnamese. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 03:22, 8 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
ALT1: ... that environmental activist Hoàng Thị Minh Hồng was the first Vietnamese person to set foot in Antarctica?

@Sammi Brie: I don't have any Vietnamese either. I have added a little more about Hồng's body of environmental work/activism as you suggested. How about

ALT2: ... that Hoàng Thị Minh Hồng's environmental activism inspired Barack Obama? Source: In 2018, U.S. President Barack Obama described Hong as one of the young people worldwide who inspired him https://apnews.com/article/vietnam-climate-activist-prison-jailed-5f18dcbcbc839de4c479c475b8b552f6
@Sammi Brie: Another ping. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 00:14, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No wonder I missed it, it was a ping without a timestamp. I am...not happy with the way this article reads still. It's just not Main Page-ready, even if one of the hooks (I prefer ALT1) is workable. It needs a copyedit, preferably from someone familiar with the Vietnamese original. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 03:08, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
OK I will do a copyedit - ping me if I have not done it in 3 or 4 days. Chidgk1 (talk) 06:44, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Sammi Brie: I have copyedited and changed a couple of Vietnamese cites for English. If there is anything else I should do please let me know. Chidgk1 (talk) 14:32, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I am...still chewing. The prose is fine. But the hook fact is the next concern. I'm going to leave this for someone else to see if ALT1 in particular is workable. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 05:36, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • ALT1 and ALT2 short enough, cited, and interesting, although I prefer ALT2. I will say that as written, this article would deserve {{prose}}, which would disqualify the nomination. Please convert the Reactions section to prose before I approve this.--Launchballer 14:39, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Prime Minister's Certificate of Merit

[edit]

If anyone speaks Vietnamese could you possibly look back in the wayback machine and see whether it was in the newspaper cited at that time - perhaps the newspaper later removed it from their website? Or can you find another cite? If so please could you put back in the text about it I deleted today and cite it thanks Chidgk1 (talk) 09:23, 12 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Removed this article

[edit]

This article is nothing more but another example of Wikipedia's anti-communism stance. The Vietnamese police already had evidence for her arrest. 2402:800:629C:8820:814F:1F8C:C8FA:9369 (talk) 00:59, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you really want to request deletion I can tell you the procedure - but I think you would be wasting your time as everyone else would want to keep it.
As you presumably support the government would you have time to update List of coal-fired power stations in Vietnam with the governments latest plan? Also Just Energy Transition Partnership#Vietnam needs more info if you have reliable sources. Chidgk1 (talk) 07:41, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
