"... that New Zealand fishing company Sealord Group is half owned by 57 iwi?"

Not really sure if the hook as currently written is interesting to a broad audience but I'll leave this to another reviewer. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 04:28, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

Overall: Hello @Panamitsu: I'm happy to take over this review 🙂 Overall, the article has no issues I could find in terms of DYK requirements and reads well, so the only (minor) issue I have is with your hook. ALT1 is my favorite, but could you re-word the end a little bit? I don't know if it's just me, but "through 57 iwi" reads kind of odd. Maybe you can take out the "57" or reword it somehow else? Once you decide, I have no problem with passing, cheers! Johnson524 16:26, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

Oh yup, the hook doesn't flow the best. I'll create another hook later, thanks! —Panamitsu (talk) 20:45, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
Panamitsu, it's been over a week without a new hook. If you wish to continue this nomination, please provide a new hook in the next few days. Many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:14, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
...that the New Zealand fishing company Sealord Group is half owned by iwi?
I've also omitted "Māori", as all iwi are Māori, but if you think that is a bit far, let me know. —Panamitsu (talk) 04:27, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
ALT3 looks good to me, cheers! Johnson524 14:21, 28 November 2023 (UTC)

@Panamitsu, Johnson524, and AirshipJungleman29: Pretty decent hook! I have a couple of things I want to clear up first: first, it seems like the ownership percentages are sourced to the government and the company; I'd wonder if there are better sources out there. Second, it seems like a very significant proportion of the article is focused on Sealord Group screw-ups – while I'm not one to argue that we're >:( being too mean to the poor companies, I suspect that a fuller article would be less focused on one-off incidents, leading to a due weight problem. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 23:26, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

I've just added added a few better sources for the shareholding (eg this one). I've also added a minimal amount of non-"screw up" content. Please let me know if this is not enough, and I'll be happy to add more.—Panamitsu (talk) 02:19, 6 December 2023 (UTC)
