Kaede Hondo[edit]

(
)
  • ... that Japanese voice actress Kaede Hondo decided to pursue a career in acting because she did not initially know that the word "make up" referred to cosmetics? Source: [1] (本渡：小学校の時に校外学習があって、そこで通りすがりのおばさんに「あんた化粧映えするよ」と言われて（笑）。その時は化粧映えという言葉を知らなかったので、後程調べたところ「私は女優さんになれるんだ」と思っちゃって。それから段々とやりたくなってきました。)
    • ALT1:... that Japanese voice actress Kaede Hondo was inspired to pursue a career in acting after a childhood incident where she did not know that the word "make up" referred to cosmetics? Source: Same as ALT0

5x expanded by Narutolovehinata5 (talk). Self-nominated at 03:30, 5 December 2018 (UTC).

  • I will review this in a short time. Flowerpiep (talk) 19:25, 13 December 2018 (UTC)Flowerpiep
  • @Narutolovehinata5: The prose portion was expanded more than fivefold and is long enough. The expansion happened on the same day as the nomination. The article is neutral. The sources are cited with inline citations, but here I would like to make three mentions: the reference from the lead section should be placed in the body of the article, the reference from number 35 has an error related to its date, and the link used in the reference for the Handa-kun/Miyoko Kinjo part from the first table does not seem to mention this character and this series (thus, a new reference should be used). Also, the external link to the official site does not seem to be working. No copyvio or plagiarism found. Regarding the hooks, both of them contain fewer than 200 characters. They are interesting, neutral, and cited with an inline citation that appears in the article. However, they are a little confusing in their current state. How about something like
  • ALT2: that Japanese voice actress Kaede Hondo decided to pursue a career in acting because she misinterpreted what she was once told? or even something like
  • ALT3: that Japanese voice actress Kaede Hondo decided to pursue a career in acting due to a misunderstanding?
I believe a hook similar to ALT3 would make the readers check the article to find out how the misunderstanding happened. QPQ done. No image. I would like to mention that this is my first DYK review, so if anyone believes that something else should be mentioned, they are more than welcome to intervene.

@Flowerpiep: Thanks, all of the article issues mentioned above have been addressed. I'm fine with your proposed hooks, in particular ALT3, but if we're going to go with them instead of the ones I proposed, we'll need a new reviewer to check them out.

  • As I am fine with Flowerpiep's suggestions (ALT3 in particular), we'll need a new reviewer to check it out. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 10:25, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
  • Approving ALT3 since it is cited and interesting (and also less confusing than the other two). The rest of the review stands per Flowerpiep: article was expanded 5x, sources are strong and reliable, article is stable, no copyright violations (from what I could check in English-language sources), layout conforms with MOS, and article is well-written.
