... that gymnasts Kim Hamilton and Corrinne Wright were the top two floor performers at three straight NCAA Championships in the late 1980s? Source: 1987 p. 6, 1988 p. 6, 1989 p. 6

Created by Hameltion (talk). Self-nominated at 23:29, 22 April 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Corrinne Tarver; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Tarver:

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Not sure if newness is counted in days or hours, but if it's over the limit it's only barely over, so that's fine. All Earwig's hits >1% are quotes, titles, or obvious orderings of words. See below regarding hook.

Hamilton:

General: Article is new enough and long enough

Adequate sourcing:
Neutral:

Other problems: - BLP issue: If you're going to mention her drug use as a minor, you should also mention her ceasing to use drugs when she got to UCLA (same source).

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: - The review at Asman Boedisantoso Ranakusuma does not seem to pass WP:DYKCRIT #5c. Could you please substitute another QPQ?
Overall: Two issues but both fixed pretty easily. All Earwig's hits are simple phrases, although ideally it would be better to rephrase "was in and out of her life" and "Hamilton was born to teenage parents". See below regarding hook.

Ping to Hameltion. Regarding the hook, it's what I'd think of as "minimally interesting", as in it passes the letter of DYKCRIT #3a at its lower limit. But I think the same fact could be presented in a more engaging way. What about:

ALT1: ... that after coming second to Kim Hamilton in floor exercise two years in a row at the NCAA Championships, Corrinne Tarver tied her in 1989 after tumbling to music from Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

Thanks Tamzin. Made edit. Could you clarify what's wrong with that QPQ? Of course I can provide another if needed. And ALT1 is a little long for my liking - and should include the word "gymnastics" - but definitely more interesting. So could do:

ALT1a: ... that after coming second to Kim Hamilton in floor exercise at two straight NCAA Gymnastics Championships, Corrinne Wright tied her in 1989 after tumbling to music from Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
ALT1b: ... that after coming second to Kim Hamilton in floor exercise at two NCAA Gymnastics Championships, Corrinne Wright tied her the next year after tumbling to music from Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

Both very close to 200. Hameltion (talk | contribs) 20:17, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Hameltion: Oh, I'm so sorry, I misread the indentation there! Somehow I thought that the bit before "Very close" was by Narutolovehinata.

Self-trout. QPQ is good to go.

Approved for 1a or 1b, at promoter's discretion. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 20:23, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Tamzin: No worries! Thanks for much improving this hook. (Also, changing hook's "Corrinne Tarver" → "Corrinne Wright" as she was known.) Hameltion (talk | contribs) 20:27, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
