  • Here is an alt in case the primary hook doesn’t work: ALT1 ...that agronomist Simon Groot was awarded the 2019 World Food Prize for giving hundreds of millions of people access to nutritious vegetables? Thriley (talk) 22:21, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
  • Article is new enough, long enough, and neutral. Almost all sources are in Dutch, so I will AGF that there are no close paraphrasing concerns; I trust that the act of translation has transformed the text sufficiently. ALT1 is more interesting to me and is probably the safer hook due to being less superlative. While the article is not a hagiography it is mostly positive (though no fault of the research process—that's just how the sources pan out sometimes).

    • Also I added an image of his bust to the career section. DigitalIceAge (talk) 14:13, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
    • Silver seren, DigitalIceAge, I have struck the original hook as it would need rewriting, as explained on the article talk page. TSventon (talk) 10:56, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
    • I have moved the article to Simon Groot in line with the nl Wikipedia article. TSventon (talk) 11:07, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
