Overall: Looks pretty good. I'm going to AGF on the ja-wiki print source and that the 新撰芸能人物事典 that Kotobank uses is an RS. Most of the info in Kotobank is corroborated in other sources in the article, so consider double sourcing some more of the major facts to be safe. Its hard for me to judge some of the other sources (CINEMAS+ ?) for reliability, so it'd be nice to get other eyes here. Also, for English speakers, is it clear that "20% Actress" refers to the audience share of her shows? — Preceding unsigned comment added by AjaxSmack (talk • contribs) 00:35, 12 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
@AjaxSmack: The ref attributes the nickname to high audience ratings, so it's safe to assume 20% refers to audience share. (Though the comment would be moot if a different hook is chosen.) Also, when using {{DYK checklist}}, keep in mind that a preference for other hooks doesn't count as a eligibility issue for the entire nomination, unlike for example none of a nom's hooks being valid, and instead belong in the overall section. ミラP@Miraclepine22:29, 12 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
Sorry. I have edited the template to reflect that. I think the sourcing has no problems, but would prefer a quick glance from another editor. — AjaxSmack14:20, 13 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
