  • Article is long enough and new enough.
  • No issues with WP:BLP or WP:NPOV
  • Earwig finds no issues, but Earwig probably doesn't access to any of the sources. I'm going to AGF on this one.
  • No issues with the referencing.
  • QPQ is done.
  • ALT0 is acceptable, but I think we can do better with something shorter. Maybe:
  • This is OK with the original hook, but some work to find a better hook could result in an improvement. As mentioned above, if we could find a hook which showed off the very nice image, that would be great. Overall, a really nice job, and make an excellent GA nomination. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:30, 14 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
This is borderline maybe, because it plays around with Minye Kyawswa (crown prince, died 1415) and Minye Kyawswa I of Ava (king, died 1442). But I find it to be rather hooky, and it could use the pic. –LordPeterII (talk) 18:41, 14 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
(I shortened ALT1 a bit by leaving out "of Ava", because it was almost 200 chars, and I don't think it's needed.) –LordPeterII (talk) 18:44, 14 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I find that kind of confusing, but I'm can't think of a way to improve it, sorry. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:51, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@RoySmith and Hybernator: Alright, let me suggest some alternatives:
ALT1b is basically just shortened to leave out the "rightful ruler" part which isn't needed for hookiness imo. ALT2 provides a much shorter alternative that still supports the image. –LordPeterII (talk) 21:14, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
