• ... that in the same year she became the Pan American Weightlifting Champion, Yuderqui Contreras's Dominican Army rank was lifted from Sergeant major to Second lieutenant?

• The article qualifies (age, expansion, citation etc) but the hook is a little unwieldy. The rank seems to be only one grade above sergeant major, albeit a commissioned officer, so I don't think it's worth mentioning that part. It could be trimmed a bit, perhaps something like one of the following? - AdamBMorgan (talk) 22:28, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

  ALT1: ... that the same year she became the Pan American Weightlifting Champion, Yuderqui Contreras was promoted to second lieutenant in the Dominican Army?

  ALT2: ... that Yuderqui Contreras became Pan American Weightlifting Champion and a second lieutenant in the same year?

  ALT3: ... that Yuderqui Contreras became Pan American Weightlifting Champion and a Dominican Army officer in the same year?

Well, I have been reading some other pending nominations, and figured out other alternate. By the way, can we hold this DYK until the Summer Olympics, since the athlete mentioned here will participate in London? Osplace 02:03, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

• ALT4: ... that 2012 Olympic weightlifter Yuderqui Contreras became Pan American Champion and a Dominican Army officer in the same year?

  • OK, Alt 4 is good, and I support holding it for the Olympics. - AdamBMorgan (talk) 19:26, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
