  • Hi NDNSWMI and thanks for this article! I am a bit concerned with the DYK hook because I do not know if it's "hooky" enough. Is there another hook you can suggest? Also, there are sentences in the article that are missing references. Can these be added too? HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 00:00, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
@HickoryOughtShirt?4 and NDNSWMI: Would this be a better option for a hook?
ALT1 ... that Leon Harrop started his acting career in BBC's The Street when the show's casting company contacted his school and his teacher suggested him?
ALT1a ... that Leon Harrop started his acting career when a casting company contacted his school and his teacher suggested him?
I think the hook could be reworded further, but that angle seems like a good start in my opinion. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 11:14, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
*ALT2 ... that Leon Harrop's first acting role caused his mother to cry? (based on Harrop says that reading the script made his mother cry)
  • I am also going to conduct a full review.
@Narutolovehinata5 and HickoryOughtShirt?4: Hello, sorry I havn't responded yet. I don't really have any suggestions for this DYK. I wanted to do a DYK for Lean Harrop as the the show he is starring in is about to air in the UK, Ralph and Katie, and I wanted to bring a bit of attention to him. I do like the the suggestion about his mother, however perhaps it needs to be clear that the crying was out of happpiness for Lean Harrop, don't want people to get the wrong impression :) NDNSWMI (talk) 03:19, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

@HickoryOughtShirt?4: I think ALT2 is okay, but since you proposed a new hook fact, a new reviewer will be needed. Is that okay with you? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 00:41, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
I don't think it's necessary to strike your ALT. Your QPQ will still stand even if you ask for a new reviewer, as long as you've done a full review. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 00:53, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
  • Given that Hickory and I have suggested new hooks, a new reviewer is needed to make a final decision. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 23:07, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
  • I will unstick this one with a review. It is long enough and new enough. The article needs citations in two parts of the body. ALT2 should be corrected to Harrop said, "reading the script made his mother cry." Lightburst (talk) 15:03, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
Anyone have thoughts on this hook request? @NDNSWMI: the nominator. Lightburst (talk) 23:50, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
Waiting. I will rewrite the hook for accuracy. The original nominator has not returned so maybe we can hear from Narutolovehinata5? Lightburst (talk) 17:51, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
  • ALT2a ... that reading the script for Leon Harrop's first acting role caused his mother to cry?
As the source is paywalled (and the usual paywall tricks aren't working for me) I will assume good faith on the sourcing. My concern right now is that there are two CN tags in the article at the moment. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 05:39, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
  • @NDNSWMI: Are you still with us? The nomination may have to be failed if the sourcing issues remain unaddressed. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 08:27, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
  • The nominator hasn't responded despite multiple pings and a talk page message despite on-wiki activity; as such the nomination is now marked for closure. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 00:00, 2 December 2022 (UTC)
