Overall: Nice work on the article about Armstrong, WikiOriginal-9! It is sufficiently long enough and was created on the same day as this nomination was, so that is not an issue. Same goes for copyright violations as well. The one concern I have is that I don't find the hook interesting – if I were to read this on the Main Page at the moment, I'd think to myself, "who is Armstrong and in which area or sport did she win 10 state titles in?". Thus, I think it needs a little more work in terms of context and clarity as noted above. The source for it is fine, though. Thanks! ~ Tails Wx 20:42, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Citation style

@WikiOriginal-9, could you go through and improve the references so that, for instance, they have the full source name (like Atlanta Journal-Constitution instead of ajc.com)? Some of them can be cite-news instead of cite-website. This would be good to have before the article runs at DYK. Thanks! —Ganesha811 (talk) 17:57, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ganesha811: Done. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 19:34, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
