Singapore Women's Hall of Fame[edit]
... that the inaugural 108 inductees into the Singapore Women's Hall of Fame were selected by a committee led by Ambassador Tommy Koh?

Well it just long enough - although there is a long well referenced list. There was no ref for the hook fact but I have added it. There is no image. Pity the hook mentions a bloke rather than a woman and the President who oversaw the award ceremony was a bloke too. No close paraphrasing spotted. I have suggested an alt with a woman in the hook. You will need to add a ref and get approval if you want to use it. However the main hook is good to go. (A woman scientist (alt2) would be an even better example - I notice there are only 2 or 3 scientists!) Victuallers (talk) 22:02, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

(ALT1).. that the first 108 members of the Singapore Women's Hall of Fame included a woman who has a mosque named after her? - .
(ALT2).. that the first 108 members of the Singapore Women's Hall of Fame included the nanotechnology researcher Jackie Yi-Ru Ying?
Thank you. When I nominated this the table wasn't there, so none of the inductees were mentioned in the article. I had actually been pondering creating a separate List of inductees in the Singapore Women's Hall of Fame article, but putting the list in the main article is fine too, so when Megalibrarygirl did that, I ran with it. I'd actually like to hold off on moving this to the main page because I think that I can make it a double DYK using the formula that you have in your alts. Masjid Hajjah Fatimah and Kanwaljit Soin are both on my shortlist. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 22:57, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

- I'm not sure if it matters, but that's only half of the list of inductees. I was working on it last month, got sidetracked and when I saw the article written by The Squirrel Conspiracy (which was much better than mine!), I figured I'd add the names to help out. :) Megalibrarygirl (talk) 23:08, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
- I did notice that some were missing (I checked to see how you handled the mountaineers that were inducted as a group, and realized they weren't in yet), however I had something else I was working on yesterday and haven't had the time to get everyone in.

- I can verify that the so-called "unauthorized" ALT1 and ALT2 are so stated in the list and sourced, if you feel like approving those hooks. If it helps you determine whether or not to do a separate list, there are a few on US women's halls of fame: Iowa Women's Hall of Fame, Ohio Women's Hall of Fame and Maryland Women's Hall of Fame are the longest ones I'm aware of. — Maile (talk) 23:24, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
- ALT3: ... that Hajjah Fatimah, one of the inaugural inductees into the Singapore Women's Hall of Fame, provided for the creation of a mosque that now bears her name?

- Victuallers, Maile66, and Megalibrarygirl: I've created a new alt, ALT3, which is a two-article DYK. I just 5x expanded Fatimah binte Sulaiman, and incorporated both articles into the new hook. Please review that hook instead of the one-article hook and alts. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 01:16, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
- The Squirrel Conspiracy, Maile66, and Megalibrarygirl - Brilliant. I have copy edited the new article, which is a valid 5xexpansion of the stub (One of the top nine women in Singapore had a mini stub!). Its neutral and not copied as far as I saw. Are you sure the name is the most popular one? I added a free image. Sufficient good refs. I have changed the two alts to approved (as per Maille - thx!). I boldly shortened alt3. There are now two approved double hooks. Well done. I hope next year to hear that the chief judge next year is a woman ;-) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Victuallers (talk • contribs) 09:56 12 November 2015
- Victuallers: Hajjah Fatimah is by far and away the most common way she's referred to in sources, however I moved the article to where it is now because Hajjah is a title, and we don't typically seem to have titles in article names. Nevertheless, I've modified the hook to use Hajjah Fatimah. Can you re-verify the hook please? The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 03:14, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
- still fine. Do you want me to move the article to that title. Titles are not usually used but we do say Doctor Who as thats his common name ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Victuallers (talk • contribs) 08:14 14 November 2015
- No thanks. I think that both are correct, I'd say leave it at the one that's more in line with the article naming guidelines. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 14:40, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
