An important article and well-written too. Posting my comments soon :) Sainsf (talk · contribs) 20:05, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
Once again, apologies for the delay. A nice, well-written article. Here are all my comments: Sainsf · (How ya doin'?) 05:55, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
- General
- No duplinks, dablinks, broken external links, copyvio issues
- Sourcing: Looks decent and reliable on the whole but this is the first time I'm seeing Britannica as a source. Not sure if one encyclopedia should go for another which is also publicly edited.
- Encyclopedia Britannica does accept some submissions from the public, but it's maintained and edited by an editorial team, and as far as I know it's still considered an acceptable source. Alanna the Brave (talk) 18:45, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for letting me know. Sainsf · (How ya doin'?) 10:25, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

- Citations: Fine overall but a few things could be improved:
- Any authors for ref 2?
- Not that I found, but this was actually the one source I couldn't access to properly check out. I've replaced it with a link to a different online article from the AAJ.
- Book titles should usually be in title case
- Fixed.
- "NPR.org" can simply and more readably written as "NPR". Similarly Google.com and others
- Fixed.
- Accessdate for ref10?
- Fixed.
- Not sure we need ISSN for a newspaper like NYT
- It may not be necessary, but it doesn't do any harm -- unless you have strong feelings about it, I think I'll leave it there.
- In ref 14 "Condé Nast Traveller India" isn't part of the title
- Fixed. Not sure how I missed that one. :-)
- Prose and coverage
- What exactly is ref 1 the source for in the lead? Is it something not in the main text?
- Removed.
located between Nepal and China
Is it necessary to say this?
- Probably not -- removed.
In 2019, a mountain range on Pluto was named Tabei Montes in her honour.
It seems like a random example from among the honors listed for her.
- I've only listed three honours in the article for now, and the mountain range seemed like the most significant item to me. I think she received some other medals and honours (according to her personal website), but I haven't been able to find good sources to back that up. I'll keep working on it.
- There should be no period in the Mt Nasu pic per WP:CAPFRAG
- Fixed.
- Introduce Hiroko Hirakawa
- Done.
- Use a convert template for 6,300 meters
- Hmm... I didn't even know that template existed! Thanks for that -- I've added it now.
- Link altitude sickness
- Done.
team leader Eiko Hisano
Here you can say just Hisano
- Done.
climbing the highest mountain on each continent
Maybe the following list should contain Puncak Jaya for completeness instead of mentioning it in the next line.
- I've edited both sentences. How does it look now? Alanna the Brave (talk) 18:45, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- Lots better. Sainsf · (How ya doin'?) 10:25, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

All points have been dealt with, and the article meets all GA criteria in my opinion. Promoted :) Sainsf · (How ya doin'?) 10:25, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
