Yao Yuan Hao[edit]

Created by 001Jrm (talk). Self-nominated at 18:39, 1 June 2015 (UTC).

  • It would, but it would also be over the 200 character limit for DYK nominations. ALT2 below is just a bit shorter, and within the limits at 193 characters (including spaces):
Full review needed. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:57, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
  • From a DYK perspective this article is satisfactory, being new enough and long enough. The hook fact is sourced and the article is neutral. The sources are almost entirely in Chinese so I could not check for copyright issues. (From a personal viewpoint, much of the "Personal life" section about relationships seems out of place in an encyclopedia.) Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:32, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
  • The Personal Life section reads like a tabloid, and should be significantly shortened before this hits the main page. Yoninah (talk) 19:38, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Edited the section. Please let me know if I needed to do more. Thank you! 001Jrm (talk) 06:41, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Thank you. @001Jrm: you really must learn the difference between fancruft and encyclopedic writing. I did more copyediting on the article to remove all the fan gossip and unnecessary information that belongs in a tabloid, not Wikipedia. The article is still over 1500 characters, and the ALT2 hook ref is AGF and cited inline. Restoring tick per Cwmhiraeth's review. Yoninah (talk) 13:01, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
