... that Mahmut Bozteke, whose arms were crippled in an accident, started performing Para Taekwondo after his physiotherapist's advise, who discovered that "he can use his legs very well instead"? Source: "Mahmut Bozteke, azmi sayesinde para-tekvandoda ...", "... kollarını çalışır vaziyetteki traktörün kuyruk miline kaptırdı. Kopan kolları ameliyatla dikilen ancak bu uzuvlarını dilediği gibi kullanamadığı için ...", (in Turkish)[1], "... fizyoterapistin "Ayaklarını iyi kullanıyorsun, bence iyi tekvando yaparsın" tavsiyesiyle ,..." (in Turkish)[2]
CeeGee, the article says his arms were amputated in an accident, I think it's better to be more specific. However, the article has several language issues, probably due to an inadequate translation of the sources. Imho it needs quite a bit of cleanup work before it's ready for this DYK.

@Dodger67: Thank you for your efforts. From a YouTube video, I can see that he has arms but somehow in damaged condition. The source says that tissue taken off his legs were implemented in his arms. So, he is not an amputee. Anyway, I will apply to the Guild of Copy Editors for the language issues. CeeGee12:27, 1 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
New at time of nomination. Copy-edit completed so the article looks in good shape. Two remaining issues: I also dislike the term "crippled" here. Could be substituted with "disabled" or "partially disabled". The second issue is that the translated quote given here for the hook doesn't match the translation found in the article. It would be perfectly acceptable as a paraphrase - remove the quote marks from the hook and it would be fine.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 23:02, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very meuch indeed for your full review and suggestion relating to the hook. I changed it as ALT1 accordingly. Please re-check. CeeGee05:31, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
