Chō Kōran
[edit]... that Japanese poet Chō Kōran studied under Yanagawa Seigan, a well-known poet, and married him when just seventeen?
- Reviewed: Disappearance of Harold Holt
Created by Alanna the Brave (talk). Nominated by Cwmhiraeth (talk) at 11:30, 8 November 2017 (UTC).
New enough, long enough, adequately sourced, and hook within rules. QPQ done. Taking sources on good faith as they are offline (Google Books won't show me the requisite pages). Earwig found no copying and I saw none in the pages of the sources I could see. Good to go. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:13, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
If he's well-known (and therefore has a Wikipedia article), please name him. Yoninah (talk) 13:38, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: I have added his name to the hook. He has an article on the German Wikipedia. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:58, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
- I would like to suggest a hook about the subject rather than about little-known "well known" poets and early marriage:
- ALT1: ... that Japanese artist and poet Chō Kōran became a specialist in ink paintings in the "Four Gentlemen" genre? Yoninah (talk) 17:10, 11 November 2017 (UTC)
- I have no objection to ALT1, so perhaps @David Eppstein: could give it a tick of approval. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:02, 11 November 2017 (UTC)
Google snippet view was enough for me to verify the hook. I added a footnote on the hook sentence as DYK rules require. Good to go. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:06, 11 November 2017 (UTC)
