... that Nina Davuluri (pictured) is the first Indian American to win the Miss America beauty pageant?

Reviewed: No QPQ required. This is not a self nom. Hopefully an image will be available at some point soon.

ALT1 ... that when Nina Davuluri (pictured) became the first Indian American to win the Miss America beauty pageant, it resulted in anti-India sentiment on social media?

Article created yesterday - NEW. Long enough. Neutral-tone of article. Hook is fine & cited (I added a more authentic citation from Huffington Post). Good to go! Mspraveen (talk) 13:16, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

We have an image. – Muboshgu (talk) 11:47, 18 September 2013 (UTC)

Image is good to go. But User:Mspraveen should indicate which hook of the two he has passed. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 18:28, 18 September 2013 (UTC)

ALT1a ... that Nina Davuluri's (pictured) status as the first Indian American to win the Miss America beauty pageant resulted in anti-India sentiment on social media?

I hope above is better than ALT1? --George Ho (talk) 15:53, 20 September 2013 (UTC)

- I'd say it is. Thanks. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:07, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
  - Great article by the way, might I suggest using the image for this one. Let's promote youth and not only black and white images of churches at DYK.--BabbaQ (talk) 22:28, 20 September 2013 (UTC)

Original hook is good, but I don't think ALT1 (or the variant ALT1a) is accurate. If you read the sources, the racist comments are mostly from ignorant bigots who mistook her as Muslim. So it's more about anti-Muslim sentiment than anti-Indian. Let's just focus on the positive and go with the original hook. -Zanhe (talk) 06:42, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
