- ... that Singaporean ballroom dancer Sunny Low's father is credited with introducing ballroom dancing to Singapore?
Created by Kingoflettuce (talk). Self-nominated at 09:51, 16 May 2022 (UTC).
Can a hook specifically about Low be proposed here? The hook is about his father and not himself. If there are no other options I will accept it (I find the hook fact to be interesting to a broad audience), I just want to know first if there are any alternatives.

- @Narutolovehinata5 and Kingoflettuce: Here's a try: Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 19:58, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
- ALT1: ... that Sunny Low and his sister were dubbed the "King and Queen of Cha-Cha-Cha and Rock 'n' Roll"? Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 19:58, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
- New enough and long enough, but I'm worried about the use of The New Paper as a source? Appears neutral and plagiarism free; offline citation for ALT1 accepted in good faith, and it's reasonably interesting. I like ALT0, but it needs to be rephrased to emphasize that Low himself is a ballroom dancer (carrying on the tradition?). QPQ has been done, so we're almost there :) theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 07:14, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
- TNP is considerably reliable: it is NOT equivalent to Sun-esque publications. (I note that it does say "published in tabloid form" on TNP's article, but that doesn't mean "tabloid journalism".) Can't see why else you'd worry. Have amended ALT0. Cheers, Kingoflettuce (talk) 14:00, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

ALTs 0 and 1 seem good to go, although I did some copyediting of ALT0. Nice work, Kingoflettuce! theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 07:55, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
