• ... that Fūka Izumi became a voice actress despite initially doubting herself into becoming one? Source: [1] ("ずっといいなと思っていて、でも無理だろうって気持ちが強かったんです。だから声優になりたいって確信したっていうのは中学生くらい。")
  • ALT1: ... that voice actress Fūka Izumi served as the manager of a swimming club in high school despite not being an official member of the club? Source: [2] ("高校生の頃は公認の幽霊部員でした。水泳部のマネージャーだったんですが、人数が多すぎて仕事がなくて…。でも、先生にお願いされてマネージャーなっていたから、公認の幽霊部員。")
  • ALT2: ... that when she was in high school, voice actress Fūka Izumi was a ghost club member? Source: same source as ALT1
  • Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Tasha Ghouri
  • Comment: Special thanks to Tails Wx who helped suggest ALT0 and ALT1 over at the Wikimedia Discord server. ALT2's fact is currently not in the article but can be added if the reviewer likes it. (Update: I have added the wording to the article regardless.)
    ALT2 is technically misleading since she wasn't a member of a ghost club, but rather "ghost club member" is a translation of "幽霊部員" and seems to be someone who participates in a club but is not a member of it. However, for ALT2 I was going with an admittedly clickbaity angle.
    The article doesn't have much other material so if none of the hooks work I'm fine with the nomination being failed.

Created by Narutolovehinata5 (talk). Self-nominated at 12:39, 13 February 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Fūka Izumi; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

• ... New enough, interesting hook linked to non-English source. Long enough, QPQ provided. No copyvio issues (<3%). Hook in article. I like proposed hooked. Whispyhistory (talk) 16:59, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

@Whispyhistory: To be clear, which hook do you like the best? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 22:32, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

@Narutolovehinata5: The first hook is my favourite please. Whispyhistory (talk) 06:32, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

I see. My preference is ALT2 but I will leave it to the promoter to decide. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 07:07, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

@Whispyhistory: Just wondering: are all hooks approved, or only the first one? The suitability of ALTs 1 and 2 were not discussed explicitly in the review. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 11:41, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

... yes, approving all 3 hooks as being in the article, interesting and followed by a non-English. Looking back at it, ALT2 is good. Thank you. Whispyhistory (talk) 11:53, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

• As per the nominator's request, please hold until after returning to one set a day. Schwede66 14:59, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
  • For the record, I think ALTs 1 & 2 are nothingburger-y, so if I promote it will probably be ALT0. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 03:47, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

My preference remains ALT2, but if consensus is to run ALT0, I will not object. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 10:13, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

AirshipJungleman29: We're currently at one set per day, see Wikipedia talk:Did you know#Queues empty.--Launchballer 10:25, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Ah, that's unexpected. My mistake and apologies Launchballer. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 10:28, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
