- Comment: QPQ exempt

5x expanded by DaxServer (talk). Self-nominated at 17:20, 28 April 2022 (UTC).[reply]

@DaxServer: New enough and long enough. User is QPQ exempt. The ALT0 hook doesn't work for me as neither the article nor the hook source say he wanted to be an actor, just that he was an actor. I do think the hook source supports ALT2, which I'm putting below and would like the nominator to approve. ALT1 is impermissible as unduly negative (WP:DYK rule 4a).

ALT2: ... that Andhra Pradesh state Minister for Irrigation Ambati Rambabu dabbled in acting before entering politics?

I have a specific question about content that's comparatively minor. You write that He moved Telangana High Court (then called Andhra Pradesh High Court, before the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh). Why not simply write "He moved Andhra Pradesh High Court" and avoid the anachronism? Is this a common formulation for topics from around the time of the Telangana/Andhra Pradesh split?

@Sammi Brie: Thanks for the review and ALT2, it's good. Re the High Court (HC) wording, the HC [at Hyderabad] in 2011 was called AP HC. With AP bifurcated in 2014, it was renamed as High Court of Judicature at Hyderabad for the State of Telangana and the State of Andhra Pradesh. Since 1 January 2019, the HC was also split and a "new" AP HC was formed to operate in Amaravati. Thus the "history" would be that AP HC in 2011 became HC at Hyderabad and then became HC of Telangana in 2019. The respective articles are Telangana High Court and Andhra Pradesh High Court. The AP HC in 2011 refers to the present day Telangana HC. I wanted to make this distinction clear. However the citation at the end of line for the HC case that Ambati moved, is named as "AP HC". I think I'll update to the simple wording as you suggested, in case if you don't have more comments on this — DaxServer (t · m · c) 08:47, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

(ALT0 or ALT2) Thanks for the explanation. Wow, that's a complicated split. That should probably still link to Telangana HC but be piped to read "Andhra Pradesh High Court"; I've made this change. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 19:33, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the update :) — DaxServer (t · m · c) 08:38, 31 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
