( Article history links: )
- ... that sailors Sophie Ainsworth and Charlotte Dobson have been selected to represent Great Britain at the 2016 Summer Olympics in the 49erFX event, which is making its debut at the Games?

- Reviewed: 2001 Italian Grand Prix and Aromatization
- Comment: Once reviewed this can be moved to the Olympic holding area. The event begins on the 10 August or alternatively medals will be awarded on 14 August.

- Articles meet criteria. Hook on the bland side, not sure how to make it much better. NE Ent 01:06, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
- @NE Ent: the blandness is a result of trying to squeeze the 2 into one hook to prevent everyone from overdosing on Olympic hooks. How about
- ALT2 ... that sailor Charlotte Dobson, who was first selected for the Scottish national team at the age of 14, is competing at the 2016 Summer Olympics in the 49erFX event alongside Sophie Ainsworth?
- Slightly convoluted to keep the two of them together but a bit more interesting than the original - Basement12 (T.C) 21:28, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
- Any reason it has to be one DYK? Ainsworth overcame a broken wrist as youngster and capsizing in competition. NE Ent 01:31, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
- NE Ent As I said the aim was to not overload with Olympic hooks but to still get both of them on the front page the day of their competition. I can split them into 2 nominations if you'd prefer - Basement12 (T.C) 07:26, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what's best -- perhaps a more DYK savvy editor has a suggestion? NE Ent 00:08, 3 June 2016 (UTC)
- Basement12 the decision of a multiple article hook, or breaking them up, is totally your choice and your judgement call. Do what you want with this. — Maile (talk) 20:33, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

Full review needed. Please indicate all aspects of the article that you have reviewed. Details that are supposed to be checked in a review can be found at DYKReviewing guide — Maile (talk) 20:33, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
At the moment, Sophie Ainsworth does not qualify for DYK on the grounds of length, having only 1004B of unique content. I have discounted the last three paragraphs because they are identical to those of Charlotte Dobson apart from the substitution of their names, and the Charlotte Dobson article was written first. It should be possible to expand the article slightly. If you are short of material you could add something on the 49erFX dinghy or expand the lead. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:44, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
- @Cwmhiraeth:, meh, not sure I have the time, inclination or motivation to expand it right now, doing so would likely need to add a very dry paragraph of results. I suggest turning it into a single article hook for Dobson and using a variation of the alt I put forward above
ALT3 ... that sailor Charlotte Dobson, who was first selected for the Scottish national team at the age of 14, is competing at the 2016 Summer Olympics in the 49erFX?- If that doesn't work then bin the whole nom - Basement12 (T.C) 12:25, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
No need to reduce the hook to a single article because I have reworked some of the existing stuff and added some more information, and the second article should be long enough now. Another reviewer needed. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:27, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
QPQ checks out, both articles long enough, new enough, and neutrally written. Both comply with WP:V. The various bits that the hook is drawn from are all sourced adequately. I would recommend going with ALT2 as it uses both articles, and is the "hookiest" of the bunch, IMO. Vanamonde93 (talk) 10:14, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
