Moved to mainspace by Launchballer (talk). Self-nominated at 10:09, 18 June 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Parthenope Wald-Harding; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

The article is new enough, long enough, and well written. There is the same problem with the sourcing as in the Nice 2 Me nomination: the BBC Music episode cited as a reference is "unavailable". I also wonder if a hookier hook could be produced from the viral violin incident. Surtsicna (talk) 18:18, 23 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

My comment at the Nice 2 Me nomination applies here, although on this occasion the Instagram source I use for the pronunciation of her name actually contains the appropriate bit of the broadcast. That said, I agree that the violin incident is probably hookier.

ALT2: ... that after future Loud LDN member Parthenope left her 200 year old violin on a train, her mother's Twitter appeal to find it went viral?--Laun chba ller 19:02, 23 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I can see that hook drawing attention! Let's see how it fares. I wonder if it should be "200-year-old violin" instead, though. I trust that will be sorted out in the preparation area. Surtsicna (talk) 18:16, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
