Created by Hameltion (talk). Self-nominated at 06:12, 7 April 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Fiona Crawley; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
- Hameltion! hope you are well.
- general: article is new enough and long enough.
- policy: article is sourced. it mostly consists of praise, but i suppose this is to be expected for an article about a young top-ranked tennis player, so i would still consider it neutral. earwig shows nothing of concern. spot checks of at least three different sources did not reveal any close paraphrasing.
- image: image was uploaded to commons by nominator, who regularly contributes to commons. the photo appears to have been taken with nominator's phone, and is released under cc by-sa 4.0. the image is used in the article and is clear in the thumbnail provided.
- qpq: provided.
- hook:
- hook is under 200 characters, interesting, accurate, and neutral.
- the article has a citation for when crawley achieved the no. 1 ranking, but not for the fact that she currently still holds it. i do not know if this means that the hook technically does not meet the dyk requirements, but i will assume that this is okay (especially since the two sources are essentially the same page but with different dates used in the url) and simply suggest that the citation provided in the nomination eventually be added to the article, perhaps in the lead or the infobox.
- personally, i would add "also" before "played" to make more clear to main page readers unfamiliar with what the ncaa is that crawley is a college tennis player. also, captions on the main page often include a subject's given name and omit the year a photo was taken if it was taken recently, so i think simply "Fiona Crawley" would be a more appropriate caption. neither issue would hold up an approval, though, so feel free to ignore these suggestions if you prefer the hook as is.
- points outside of the dyk criteria:
- i would suggest transposing "from age six to nine" and "in Okinawa, Japan", as i think that the "while living" feels strangely redundant until the "in Okinawa, Japan" is encountered. this is admittedly rather trivial, but i only brought it up because it felt really weird to me. a google search for "while living from age" returns only a few results, with this article being the top one.
