- Hello, Will629. The nomination is timely and the article is long enough with no copyvios detected. Several entries in the Discography table, as well as the Awards and nominations table, appear unsourced, though. These would require references. I think it can use some tweaking for catchiness; how about this?--NØ 19:35, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- ALT1: ... that Windy Zhan (pictured) of the Hong Kong girl group After Class has been learning and practising vocal music since the age of five?
- MaranoFan, thank you very much for your prompt review. I have corrected the issues and your question suggestion is very good, thank you! May I ask what do I need to do for using your ALT1 suggestion, as I am new for DYK in English Wikipedia. Thank you!--Will629 (talk) 19:52, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- I have struck the first hook so ALT1 will be considered by the promotor, no further action required. Thank you for correcting the issues so quickly. Foreign-language reference accepted in good faith, this is good to go. Welcome to the English Wikipedia and best of luck here!--NØ 20:02, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you very much again!--Will629 (talk) 20:59, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Will629 and MaranoFan: is this unusual or interesting enough? Out of interest, I just looked at a number of other famous singers—all had started before the age of seven. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 21:35, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- +1 from me, I'd say. We get a lot of these types of hooks, ironically enough, and they usually don't perform too well. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 22:16, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

- ALT2: ... that Windy Zhan (pictured) of the Hong Kong girl group After Class was highly praised by Taiwanese netizens for her performance in singing the Queen of the Night aria in June 2023?
- @AirshipJungleman29: Is that okay?--Will629 (talk) 19:04, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
- The website it is sourced to looks extremely tabloidy. See WP:NOTGOSSIP. The hook needs to be cited to a reliable source, and orientalsunday.hk doesn't look like one. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 19:11, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
- @AirshipJungleman29: I have added few more sources, is that okay?--Will629 (talk) 19:23, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

- @AirshipJungleman29: Have your concerns been addressed? If not what else needs to be done? Z1720 (talk) 20:00, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
- No, not really; the above churnalism all saying variations of "random people liked the performance on Twitter" aren't a good source to build a hook off. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 23:11, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
- ALT: ... that Windy Zhan (pictured) of the Hong Kong girl group After Class was enrolled in the Xinghai Conservatory of Music in Guangzhou, China in 2024?
- @AirshipJungleman29: For your last comment, I don't think they are churnalism as they do report the news, and it is not Twitter but Facebook. But anyway, I hope this new hook is okay and again, these are the local news sources that I could find. Actually they already constitute most of the mainstream news sources that are referring to the news itself. If it still doesn't meet the requirements, I would really like to hear your suggestions. Thank you.--Will629 (talk) 22:55, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
- Personally I don't think the new hook meets WP:DYKINT as the significance of being enrolled in that particular conservatory isn't clear to the average reader. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 23:23, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- What about this? The sources are throughout and this is so far the best I can do.

- This looks to me like the best that can be done based on the current version of the article. Unfortunately, its DYK potential seems to be limited, but I believe we've run way worse. All the hooks are okay to me, although not the best.--NØ 20:02, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

- This is now the oldest unapproved nomination: two months have passed since the nomination date, yet the issues remain unaddressed. As such, this is now marked for closure per WP:DYKTIMEOUT. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 00:12, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
