• Comment: Requesting a special occasion hook for August 25, the birthday of her character Lisa Imai from BanG Dream!, but if for whatever reason this request falls through, an alternative could be her birthday on September 12, though if possible I'd prefer the first date. Additional hook suggestions are welcome.

Hook eligibility:

• Cited: - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith
• Interesting:
• Other problems: - Both hooks are a little wordy. I have an alternative I think would more than suffice.

Overall: ALT1B: ... that voice actress Yuki Nakashima is a public relations officer for Japan's Wakayama Prefecture? –MJL ‐Talk‐^☖ 22:54, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

@MJL: ALT1B sounds good to me. I've fixed a minor typo for you (you forgot to put an "a" before "public relations"). Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 23:27, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

@Narutolovehinata5: Well, this is all set then! :D –MJL ‐Talk‐^☖ 02:44, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• ALT1B is not very "interesting". It just says a person has two jobs! §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 14:24, 9 August 2019 (UTC)

  @Dharmadhyaksha: I have no clue what you're talking about. A voice actress doing public relations work for her prefecture. I think that is interesting by my own criteria. If you're going to question review, in the future, please ping me. –MJL ‐Talk‐^☖ 23:47, 10 August 2019 (UTC)

• MJL, for future reference, as the proposer of a hook at DYK (in this case, ALT1B), you may not also approve it. Another reviewer is needed for such cases. Let's get a second opinion on ALT1B; if another reviewer agrees that it isn't interesting, then a new hook should be proposed. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:32, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

• @BlueMoonset: Understood. My apologies! –MJL ‐Talk‐^☖ 23:18, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

• It's just as interesting as a footballer working as an accountant or as a prison guard, two recently promoted hooks. I like the contrast and the snappy language in ALT1B. Foreign-language hook ref AGF and cited inline. Rest of review per MJL. ALT1B good to go. Yoninah (talk) 21:47, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
