  • ... that Carla Van Zon (pictured) ran two arts festivals in New Zealand? Source: "Carla recently retired as Artistic Director of the Auckland Arts Festival (AAF), having delivered her fourth and final festival in 2017. Carla was a driving force in taking the Festival annual, for bringing greater diversity to the programme, and championing Māori and Pasifika work. Before her time at AAF, she was International Manager for the Arts Council of New Zealand Toi Aotearoa where she oversaw the development of an international strategy, developing a programme to assist New Zealand artists to achieve international success.

  • Comment: this is my first DYK nomination - hence no QPQ required

Created by DrThneed (talk). Nominated by Pakoire (talk) at 01:03, 9 June 2021 (UTC).[reply]

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: None required.

Overall: This is very close to passing DYK. If the neutrality and quote issues can be resolved (which are fairly minor), I would be happy to pass. ALT0 is my preferred, as ALT1 has some condescending/misogynisic language (i.e. that Carla Van Zon is a women who ran two arts festivals [...]) and a typo.

:I have just made some edits to the article. Thank you for your feedback on the article and the DYK. I can edit the 'woman' statement from ALT1 as an option for a DYK with more information? Pakoire (talk) 21:31, 13 June 2021 (UTC) [reply]

Your edits look good and resolve the issues with neutrality and plagiarism. I've made some minor edits to the article. Feel free to revert them. I would prefer ALT0, as it is more concise. --Aknell4 (talk · contribs) 01:03, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Your edit is fine. I am also happy with ALT0 - great. Pakoire (talk) 06:47, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Length and age meet requirements, copyvio and plagiarism concerns have been dealt with, reliable sources have been used, and hook is within the limits. Good for ALT0. --Aknell4 (talk · contribs) 12:04, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
