You have a few hooks like this. Instead of spending so many words explaining what the award is, why not write a hook with the award as the subject, perhaps saying what it was named after? Yoninah (talk) 13:55, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
Yoninah, the awards are named after Arjuna, a well known figure in Hindu mythology. The Indian audience will not find that interesting. You can read about naming in the first few lines of the article and tell me if it will be interesting to the worldwide audience. I also plan to nominate List of Arjuna award recipients (2000–2009), List of Arjuna award recipients (2010–2019) with some controversy related hooks and also the main article Arjuna Award once the article is completed with history, nomination, selection, recipients, controversies and criticism section something along the lines of Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna & Tenzing Norgay National Adventure Award, but more detailed than either of them (due to its long history since 1961 and sought after top sports award). Is your advice that I should stop bringing them to DYK? Roller26 (talk) 14:16, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
@Roller26: First of all, you're not just writing for an Indian audience, but for an international readership. Secondly, you can write about any award as long as you word the hook in a "hooky" way so readers will be motivated to click on the bolded link and learn more. If you'd like a hook suggestion for this nomination, I could think of one. Yoninah (talk) 14:30, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
Yoninah, I definitely appreciate the international readership. As per this [4], Indian audience accounts for about 8-9% of English Wiki's audience. I am not sure of naming being hooky enough for broad audience, however if you feel that its interesting enough I can have that as the hook for the main article Arjuna Award as it will make more sense there then any of the decade wise awardees list. I also welcome any suggestion from you, you had helped with Tenzing Norgay National Adventure Award hook too and reviewed my first DYK List of Indian chess players.

We have a problem here. I notice that you have duplicated text from Arjuna Award in this and your other award recipient list articles. Per Rule A5, you are only allowed to use text duplicated from another article which has been written within 7 days in one article. It appears that you wrote the introductory text in Arjuna Award on September 24. Since you are not nominating Arjuna Award at DYK, it would appear that you could apply this chunk of text toward the character count of just one article. Since you have already applied this duplicated text to Template:Did you know nominations/List of Arjuna award recipients (1980–1989), you cannot apply it here or at Template:Did you know nominations/List of Arjuna award recipients (1961–1969), and these articles now fall short of the required 1,500-character minimum of new text. Furthermore, when you nominate Arjuna Award, you will have to expand the copied text 5x in order for the article to qualify, again per Rule A5.
Your choice is to expand both this article and List of Arjuna award recipients (1961–1969) to 1,500 characters of new text to meet the DYK criteria, or bring them both to GA status and nominate again. (Then the duplicated text will not be an issue.) Yoninah (talk) 18:00, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
OK, there is now 1500 characters of new text here. Continuing with the review. Yoninah (talk) 10:37, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
Overall: This review is in respect of ALT1a. All is well now with this nomination, except that I have a query about the image licence. It is probably OK, but that licence needs to be reviewed by an admin. So I shall wait for the review before I give the green tick. That licence review should help to get the nom smoothly through the DYK system without any holdups. Please be patient - nearly there!Storye book (talk) 19:48, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
Confirming that I have requested a licence review for the above image. Storye book (talk) 19:56, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
@Storye book:, thanks for the review and copy edit of the article. I believe your request for the image has been processed. Roller26 (talk) 20:56, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

Thank you. OK, we need a full review of the nomination and ALT1 from another reviewer. Yoninah (talk) 12:44, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
This review is in respect of ALT1a. All is well now with this nomination, 
Good to go. Storye book (talk) 07:11, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
