Improved to Good Article status by Zwerg Nase (talk). Self-nominated at 09:42, 15 May 2015 (UTC).

  • This article is new enough and long enough. The hook is sourced and the image suitably licensed. The article is neutral and I didn't detect any copyright issues. I do not believe Zwerg Nase needs to do a QPQ review. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:09, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
Thank you for your review! Zwerg Nase (talk) 06:35, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
  • DYK Rule D2 requires at least one citation per paragraph. Please add a cite to the first 2 paragraphs under Qualifying. Additionally, please source the two charts under Standings after the race. Thank you, Yoninah (talk) 20:31, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
  • Rule D2 also states excluding the intro, plot summaries, and paragraphs which summarize other cited content. I believe that a summary of qualifying, just as a plot summary of a movie, falls under that category. All I could do is put the same citation on every paragraph, which would be quite ridiculous. Zwerg Nase (talk) 09:45, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
  • A cite at the end of each (long) paragraph is not ridiculous in DYK's eyes. And the hook fact closely paraphrases the source. I tried to think of a different word for "different" but could find one; maybe you could. Yoninah (talk) 09:47, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
  • I changed it, but I uphold my opinion that it looks quite strange. As for the wording: Tricky. How about distinctive? I'm not quite sure if that works, my non-native-speaker instincts leave me at that point... Zwerg Nase (talk) 09:55, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
  • Thanks for adding the cites. Everything looks great. Regarding the hook, how about just deleting "different"? That makes total sense.
  • ALT1: ... that with Nico Rosberg's (pictured) victory at the 2015 Spanish Grand Prix, he became the ninth winner of the race in as many years? Yoninah (talk) 12:31, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
  • Thank you. Hook ref verified and cited inline. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 22:34, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
