Ayane Sakura
edit- ... that Ayane Sakura originally pursued an acting career, but decided to pursue voice acting instead because she realized she "was different"? Source: [1] "―そこからどうして声の仕事に？佐倉 中学生なりの思いつきで劇団に入ったのはよかったんですけど、実際にステージに立った瞬間、「あ、違う」って思ってしまったんです。"

5x expanded by Narutolovehinata5 (talk). Self-nominated at 04:25, 7 May 2018 (UTC).
Long enough for 5x expansion, sources look fine to me (with AGF on Japanese sources), copyvio doesn't bring up any red flags of note, QPQ provided, looks good to go. Personally, I'd go with either the original hook or ALT2. Zappa⚡Mati 03:51, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
- @Narutolovehinata5, ZappaOMati, and Cwmhiraeth: Nothing personal, but the hook that was promoted essentially asks "did you know that a voice actress had voice acting roles" and is going to get pilloried at WT:DYK or ERRORS if it makes it to the main page. Can we explore some further possibilities? If the sword-fighting lessons can be verified, I'd suggest combining it with the original hook. Vanamonde (talk) 06:54, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
- @Vanamonde93: The Excite news link does mention swordfighting: the relevant quote (emphasis mine) is "佐倉 とても真剣な夢というわけではなくて。私は小さい頃からカラダが弱くて、総合的に体力をつけられる習い事をしようと思っていたんです。それで演技の他にも日本舞踊やストレッチ、殺陣やボイストレーニングなどいろんなことを学ぶことができるからと東俳に入りました。". So how about:
- ALT3: ...that Japanese voice actress Ayane Sakura practised sword fighting while in acting school?
- If possible, please promote this as soon as possible since I don't want this to run very close to the June 1 voice actor hook. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 07:32, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
- I'd prefer that another editor approve the hook, allowing me to move it to prep/queue as necessary; if you're willing to wait on that, I'll take a look. Vanamonde (talk) 07:38, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

@Vanamonde93: I am happy to AGF ALT3. Google translate made quite a good job of translating the Japanese, but preferred "suicide" to "sword fighting", however it did give me "sword fighting" as an alternative translation. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 08:26, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
