• The article is new enough, long enough, within policy and BLP tagged, and the hook referenced. -- KTC (talk) 12:25, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

• I like the hook, but I don't see any inline source citation for him winning the Fukuoka Asian Culture Prize, nor is there one that says it's a Japanese prize, both keys to the hook. Note that by DYK rules, hook information must be sourced by the end of the sentence where the information appears. Elsewhere, like at the end of the paragraph, is not sufficient for DYK. An AGF tick should have been used for the "refugee fleeing" bit from the third source, unless of course you read Chinese and can confirm the information directly, in which course the regular green tick is fine.

• Fixed the references issue w.r.t. prize. A green tick over an AGF tick was used because.... *point to User:KTC*. -- KTC (talk) 18:56, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

• Thanks. That takes care of the sourcing and prize locus. I'm wondering, though, whether the hook needs rewording, since the prize isn't given by Japan, but by a city (or an organization in/of the Japanese city, I can't quite tell which) in that country. Perhaps this would be more accurate:

• ALT1: ... that some 50 years before archaeologist Wang Zhongshu won the Japan-based Fukuoka Asian Culture Prize, he was a refugee fleeing from the Japanese invaders?

I think "Japan-based" will do the trick; otherwise, Fukuoka would need to be reiterated (e.g., from the Japanese city of Fukuoka). BlueMoonset (talk) 05:00, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

ALT1 sounds fine to me. -Zanhe (talk) 05:52, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

• Need someone other than me to review ALT1. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:57, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

• ALT1 is acceptable. I've confirmed the Chinese sources and the "fleeing from Japanese invader" part is mentioned, although only in half a sentence. There should be no neutrality problems. Alex Shih^Talk 00:25, 4 August 2013 (UTC)
