 * ALT1: ... that Ludmila Pagliero is the first South American to receive the title of étoile at the Paris Opera Ballet?
 * Symbol question.svg Article is new enough, long enough, adequately referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. No QPQ needed. However, I don't see the hook ref in footnote 1. Yoninah (talk) 20:39, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, ALT1 is certainly an improvement.--Ipigott (talk) 20:43, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
 * But the hook fact is not in the source. The source only says that Ludmila is the first South American dancer in the Paris Opera Ballet. Yoninah (talk) 20:45, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
 * I really think this is a case of splitting hairs. One cannot possibly become an étoile without being a member of the company. I have now added another French source on her Latin-American origins. If you cannot go along with this, then I suggest:
 * ALT2: ... that Ludmila Pagliero, the first South American at the Paris Opera Ballet, has received the title of étoile? --Ipigott (talk) 09:46, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol voting keep.svg Thanks for adding another source. I do think that ALT1 is the best hook. Foreign-language hook ref AGF and cited inline. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 18:10, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
