• I wonder if alternative hooks can be proposed here: the first hook seems okay but it sounds a bit self-promotional. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 14:00, 11 June 2019 (UTC)

Added another one. Cat's Tuxedo (talk) 16:35, 11 June 2019 (UTC)

Hi, yeah, the first one is very promotional in my eyes. The second one isn't sourced here, and in text has sourcing to magazine sources, so I'll WP:AGF on those. It's still a little wordy for me. I prefer "earned" to "won" as well, as it suggests it wasn't a competition. No copyvio issues, nominated in time, and is of sufficient length. Striking the top hook.
