Alejandro González Iñárritu in 2014

... that Alejandro González Iñárritu (pictured) is the first Mexican director nominated for the Academy Award for Best Directing and the Directors Guild of America Award for Outstanding Directing, and the first to win the Cannes Film Festival Best Director Award?

Comment: Not sure if this piped link is appropriate.

Hi Lapadite77, unfortunately the hook is a bit long – the maximum length is usually 200 characters and this one is 259. To trim the hook, I suggest maybe cutting out the DGA award, since it's less well known than the Oscars or Cannes. If it is still too long, you could also just cut it down to the fact about the Oscar since that's an amazing feat by itself. 97198 (talk) 12:35, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
- No problem. Removed the DGA line in ALT1. It's has 192 now. Lapadite (talk) 12:54, 27 October 2015 (UTC)

Great thanks. Article was created on 20 October; long enough; sufficient references; hook fact is interesting and cited; image is free to use; no close paraphrasing (there is some duplicate wording but I think this is unavoidable); QPQ not required since nominator has no previous credits as far as I can tell. Well done! 97198 (talk) 13:05, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
