Kiuchi Kyō

  • ... that Kiuchi Kyō was the first Japanese woman to be a school principal? Source: "昭和6年東京の志村第一小学校校長となり,全国初の女性校長として女子教員の地位向上につくす。/In 1931, she became the principal of Shimura Daiichi Elementary School in Tokyo, and as the first female principal in the country, she worked to improve the status of female teachers."

  • This is mostly a drive-by comment for now, but while I like the hook, there have been objections recently on WT:DYK regarding a large number of "first X" hooks being proposed. If it is feasible, would it be okay for you to add an additional interesting fact to the hook as well? For example, something like "... that Kiuchi Kyō, who was the first Japanese woman to be a school principal...". I'd be fine with the original hook, I'm just worried that there could be objections raised later on, so this is just so that there's a backup option.

I'll cut down some words if it looks too wordy. ミラP 23:55, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
That sounds okay. I'm considering reviewing this too, but I'm busy with real life right now, so if I won't be able to review this soon, I'm inviting another editor to give this a look too. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 23:58, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

@Mary Mark Ockerbloom: ALT2 sounds good, but it still needs a review. ミラP 15:04, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
  • Full review needed. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:50, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
The article is new enough, as it was created and nominated on the same date (19 November 2019). Per Javascript character counter, the article is long enough at 2,500+ bytes of prose. The translation is neutral, properly attributed on the talk page, and utilizes inline citations. ALT2 is interesting, not wordy, and well-cited. QPQ complete.
