Overall: 
This fascinating article about a Japanese film star is a joy to read. I understand that you have 4 DYKs, which means you are exempt from doing a QPQ.
@Simongraham: I have given this nomination a query status so that it is not promoted until I can maybe persuade you to offer the article's beautiful image for use at DYK, The image is free, and is clear when used as a thumbnail. The second version is a cropped version of the first, which is permissible at DYK (so you do not have to add the second version to the article if it is used at DYK).

- @Storye book: That is a very gracious thing to say. I am extremely happy to add an image to the nomination. I feel that the cropped version is more appropriate so am very pleased to hear that is acceptable without having to add it to the article. simongraham (talk) 04:44, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Simongraham: Thank you. I have removed the spare copies of the image from this template to prevent confusion. I look forward to seeing the picture on DYK. Storye book (talk) 09:36, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
- Storye book, what is left to do for this nomination to be approved? You have yet to give it the approval tick (status is still "?" in the "DYK checklist" template), so presumably there's more to be done. Thanks for clearing this up. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:13, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
Good to go, with a plea to the promoter to please use the image if at all possible, because it is so beautiful; also it helps to support the Women in Red effort. Thank you. Storye book (talk) 17:17, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
