- Alt1 ... that after her mother's early death, South African businesswoman Phuti Mahanyele does not take time for granted? Philafrenzy (talk) 21:57, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
New enough, long enough, no obvious copyvios, I've added citations after possible hook facts. I should note, though, that having stopped in to review, I got interested and ended up doing a bunch of editing on the article! Someone else may want to confirm that this one is acceptable as well as me.Mary Mark Ockerbloom (talk) 14:48, 24 October 2014 (UTC)- ALT2 ... that Phuti Mahanyele was chosen as ForbesWoman Africa Business Woman of the Year in 2014?
- I agree, ALT2 is more interesting. Hook ref verified and cited inline. ALT2 good to go. Philafrenzy, can we add Mary Mark Ockerbloom to the credits? She doubled the character count on the page. Yoninah (talk) 22:49, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
- Good idea. I don't feel strongly about it, but awards leave me cold while both the original hooks had human interest. Philafrenzy (talk) 23:02, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
- I hear you. The original hook is a little self-aggrandizing, though. ALT1 works – it's verified and cited inline. I leave it to the closing administrator to make the final decision. I added MMO to the credits. Yoninah (talk) 00:00, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks. (I thought I added MMO) Philafrenzy (talk) 00:06, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
- You did, but I added it to the list that the prep builder will copy it from. Yoninah (talk) 00:29, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks. Philafrenzy (talk) 01:13, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
