  • New enough. Long enough. AGF on the hook source, as I get "451: Unavailable for legal reasons", not being based in the US. The "youngest" hook is a bit dull, not really "interesting" in my opinion. There are only five people on a basketball team, as I recall. Perhaps something about how she survived a car accident that killed two of her brothers? Article is well-cited. NPOV observed. Earwig and spot-checking reveal no close paraphrasing, copyright violations or plagiarism issues. Image is suitably licenced for main page. QPQ done. Edwardx (talk) 10:45, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
    • There are twelve players on a Paralympic basketball team. Only five are on the court at any time. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 11:45, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
  • Thanks, Hawkeye7. Youngest of 12 is better, but is it really "interesting"? Edwardx (talk) 12:22, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
  • ALT2 ... that Rose Hollermann (pictured) won the gold medal even though an accident left her partly paralyzed from the waist down?Hollermann, a Minnesota native, suffered a T11-T12 incomplete spinal cord injury that significantly limited her mobility.[2]
  • Another suggestion, this one emphasizes her achievements off the court as well as on. Mary Mark Ockerbloom (talk) 19:27, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
  • Reviewer needed for the new ALT hooks. Edwardx, did you want to review them, or should we find someone else? Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:55, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
  • This article is new enough and long enough. Approving ALT0 and ALT3. The image is appropriately licensed, the hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright or plagiarism issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:16, 4 August 2019 (UTC)
