A fact from Sunny Cheung appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 13 August 2020 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Hong Kong pro-democracy activist Sunny Cheung once said: "We want to build a democratic Hong Kong. It's not our responsibility to build a democratic China"?

Hi CoryGlee, a full review will be done later. I found a local news report that he attended the vigil this year, and I added that information to the article. Right now I suggest changing his position at HKBU to "Hong Kong pro-democracy activist" as it probably will make more sense for the broader audience. Corachow (talk) 01:54, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Overall: In 2015 he was not a politician, , so I think "and politician" should be removed. Since he attended the vigil this year, CoryGlee, do you think it should be noted? Everything else is fine. Corachow (talk) 15:38, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Corachow Hi! and thanks for your review!, I changed the hook again to make it clear he changed position and made it clear that in 2015 he was only an activist, he became political this year losing to Sham Tsz-kit as noted. I beg your pardon if the hook is confusing but as I said above my English is not the best, you are free to make me any further correction, and thank you again. CoryGlee (talk) 16:46, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
CoryGlee, the hook has to be within 200 characters, even without mentioning this year, it is still too long, so I apologise for not noticing this earlier. I guess it's fine to not mention 2020, but the original hook still has to be shortened. Corachow (talk) 16:57, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think this one works. He still gets to run for the general election, so he did not lose, just came in second. Here's a rephrased version of your original hook (which you removed):
Corachow, sure my friend!, yes, I changed because my English is poor and I'm horrible connecting words. I am all in for your ALT1!, all your credit! :-) ^_^ CoryGlee (talk) 17:15, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Now we need someone else have to review this. For the new reviewer, ALT1 is based on the original hook, which was removed, please see the history for that. Do I need to do a QPQ? Corachow (talk) 17:24, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
If I may opine, it would be unfair to make Corachow review a QPQ, it was entirely my fault that I didn't know how to put an ALT1. That's why I removed the original hook. CoryGlee (talk) 17:31, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Since CoryGlee is the nominator and this is their first DYK nomination, no QPQ is needed. It doesn't matter that Corachow added an ALT hook, insofar as the QPQ is concerned, just who nominated. We do need a new reviewer, as noted above, since ALT1 was suggested by Corachow. BlueMoonset (talk) 18:00, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Overall: Although ALT1 is good, I think if we mention not attending the 2015 vigil we should also mention attending the 2020 vigil, so, I am approving ALT2. Ready for DYK Terasaface (talk) 15:33, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
