 * Symbol confirmed.svg New and long enough, QPQ done, all non-lead ¶ with citations, a copyvio check reveals no problems, hook and alt content is verified with citations to reliable sources in the article (verified using Google Translate). North America1000 08:22, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * In my opinion the OG hook plus the image would give plenty of hits. Interesting.BabbaQ (talk) 08:28, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Thank you BabbaQ and North America. I agree that ALT0 is the much better hook. I've added a shorter version as ALT2 that you might want to look at. It should be obvious that "Miss Sweden" is a beauty pageant, so we could drop that phrase. Edwardx (talk) 00:35, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg ALT2 is also fine. North America1000 00:57, 12 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Symbol question.svg - looking at the article I cannot get a handle on what her Notability really is. Reading through it she has worked for a political party, but does not look like she was never elected to any office anywhere, at most as an alternate/substitute. And now she is retiring from politics. Competing in Miss Sweden and ending in the top 15 is not really enough to give her enough notability. Can you perhaps shed some light on why you think her fairly unremarkable career qualifies her as notable?  MPJ  -DK  23:30, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
 * The article does not state anywhere that she is retiring. Quite the opposite, she has landed a job as a councilor in Linköping, which is very political and high level in Sweden. I find these questions more appropriate for the articles talk page than this DYK. BabbaQ (talk) 23:33, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
 * My English skills has failed me. Councilor was wrong, she is Municipal commissioner. I hope that will help you. I have changed it as well. Being a municipal commissioner is notable for politicians in Sweden. BabbaQ (talk) 23:34, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
 * I am not sure I agree with that, it's not an elected office - it's a job in a municipal in Sweden she was hired to do, not a national level job. Municipal jobs in Denmark generally are not that notable, I doubt it's that different in Sweden. There are certain jobs that immediately says "notability" just by being appointed, this isn't one of them IMO.  MPJ  -DK 00:01, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
 * The reality of this situation is that combined, this person has notability through her work as a politician. The DYK has been approved. I would suggest that we bring this discussion to the articles talk page. As it is a discussion that in my opinion is a matter of different opinions.

 * It is indeed an opinion, but it would affect DYK which is why I noted it here. If this article gets nominated for deletion it would put the DYK on hold until it is either kept or deleted.  MPJ  -DK 00:08, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
 * The reality is that the article would be kept if it was put through an AfD discussion. The article has good sources, the article subject has had several noted jobs within the field of politics etc. Also no one has suggested that the article should be put through that process.BabbaQ (talk) 00:10, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
 * I believe WP:NPOL is the appropriate notability guideline. This discussion is also visible on Talk:Sara Skyttedal.  GoingBatty (talk) 00:24, 26 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Symbol confirmed.svg I have stated my opinion, which I agree is all it is - if a Prep builder disagress with me and believes it has enough notability then by all means take it.  MPJ  -DK 00:16, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
