Rei Nakashima

(

  • ... that anime singer Rei Nakashima was named after Ray Charles? Source: [1] ("“怜”という名前も、レイ・チャールズ好きな母がつけたもので。")
    • ALT1: ... that Rei Nakashima thought she had failed her music audition, only to discover that she had won over a thousand other applicants? Source: 1. Same as above, ("私、落ちると思っていたんです（苦笑）。オリジナル曲のギター弾き語りの時には緊張しすぎてストロークがガタガタに……その次に「愛・おぼえていますか」（映画『超時空要塞マクロス 愛・おぼえていますか』主題歌）を歌ったときは、緊張が一気に消えて、極度のリラックス状態になって、歌詞を噛んでしまったんですね。そこで思わず笑ってしまって。サビ前になんとか挽回したのですが、「絶対に落ちたな」と。だからびっくりしすぎて「合格ってもしかして別の意味があるのかも……？」と調べたくらいで。")
      2. [2] (1,000通を超える応募者の中からグランプリには愛知県出身の中島 怜（なかしまれい）さん、特別賞には埼玉県出身の大渕野々花（おおぶちののか）さんが選ばれました。)

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Reviewing this per request at WT:DYK. Minor quibble - the source says over 1,000 applicants, whereas our article uses a thousand as a fixed number.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 14:16, 7 November 2024 (UTC)

  • Article is new enough, long enough, and neutral. AGF on foreign-language sources for paraphrasing. No image to review. Preference is for ALT0/original, though both are supported. I agree that holding it for her birthday makes sense. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 14:53, 7 November 2024 (UTC)
@Crisco 1492: Thanks for the review! I guess this can be moved now? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 02:04, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
  • I believe so? This is my first special occasion hook since coming back, so I don't know what current practice is. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 02:06, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
Hooks approved for special occasions go into the holding area at WP:DYKNA. Maybe Z1720 knows how to explain it better. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 03:06, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
  • Yeah. I didn't remember that being the reviewer. Will do. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 03:13, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
