ALT1 ... that Zhou Xiaoyan was described by The New York Times as "China's First Lady of Opera"?

I think it would be a good idea to mention the source of the praise, so I prepared ALT1. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 02:22, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

New, long enough, well-written, referenced, neutral, no apparent close paraphrasing. Great hook which is cited inline; both are fine but the authority of the Times as mentioned in ALT1 gives it some extra oomph, I think. QPQ done. Nice work! 97198 (talk) 12:49, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

Thank you 97198. I like The Squirrel Conspiracy's Alt1 hook as well. Let's go with that one.4meter4 (talk) 14:07, 16 November 2015 (UTC)
