Nice article - I enjoyed reading it. The article is long enough, new enough, netural and well sourced. QPQ is done. Hook one is cited correctly. I checked the sources, and they are correct. Of the two hooks given, I prefer the first hook. The second hook should actually have the citation moved up to the sentence that has the fact. Personally, I think a more fun fact for hook 2 is that she once danced a principal role in every ballet performed at the last weekend of the festival. But original proposed hook is fine as is. Good to go. PMCH2 (talk) 02:48, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

@PMCH2: Thanks for the review. Per your suggestion, I'm adding another hook.
ALT2:... that Maria Calegari danced every principal role in every ballet performed by the New York City Ballet during a weekend in her early career?
I prefer ALT2 over ALT0 and ALT1. Corachow (talk) 09:21, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

I like ALT2 as well. The source says she danced "a" principal role in every ballet, not every principal role. I would suggest making that change. Some of the principal roles would have been male dancers, I presume. PMCH2 (talk) 13:22, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
