Carl Au

Improved to Good Article status by Soaper1234 (talk). Self-nominated at 15:19, 21 March 2021 (UTC).

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: No - The fact that Au was the inaugural recipient of the prize doesn't seem to be cited.
  • Interesting: Yes
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Mostly looks good, just one issue. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 06:04, 3 April 2021 (UTC)

  • Thank you for the review Mx. Granger. The best I can find to say it was the first ceremony is by using the source provided. When you hover over the SSSSPOTY tab, it lists all the ceremonies, with 2007 being the first. If you don't deem this good enough, I can reword the hook. Soaper1234 - talk 18:23, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
Thanks, that seems fine to me. I'll add that citation to the lead to satisfy the requirement that the hook be cited inline. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 18:25, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
