Şimal Yılmaz
... that Turkish sport shooter Şimal Yılmaz, who qualified for the 2024 Summer Olympics, had exercised in her youth years in her home's living room?Source: "Avrupa ikincisi olan milli atıcı Şimal Yılmaz, Paris 2024 kotası aldı" (in Turkish) [1], "12 yaşındaki Şimal Yılmaz, babasının desteğiyle evinin salonuna kurduğu poligonda antrenman yaparak" (in Turkish) [2]
Created by CeeGee (talk). Self-nominated at 16:38, 4 March 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Şimal Yılmaz; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
interesting bio on fine sources, Turkish sources accepted AGF. The hook works for me. In the article, there are many very short paras, and a bit too much "she ... she" and "at ... at" for my taste. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:13, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt and CeeGee: I am finding the hook to be a bit clumsy. Without objection I will tweak it. I am also looking at the article which seems rather oddly organized. Quite a few orphan sentences. There is also a maintenance tag to resolve.

- Thank you for helping us non-native speakers. ALT1 preferred. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:03, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt and CeeGee: There are still issues to resolve. Bruxton (talk) 20:16, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
- ALT2: ... that Turkish sport shooter Şimal Yılmaz, who qualified for the 2024 Summer Olympics, had a shooting range in her home's living room?
- @Gerda Arendt and CeeGee: This hook may be more interesting and accurate for DYK. i also copyedited the article and removed the template. Bruxton (talk) 14:50, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
New reviewer needed for ALT2. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 14:53, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
- Interesting and short enough, but you need an end-of-sentence citation. And I also want to know what WP:ANADOLU's doing in a BLP. And what's a 'quta'?--Launchballer 16:15, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt, CeeGee, and Launchballer: I was asked to copyedit the article. I just noticed, must be a machine translation and misspelling - the article said quota. I changed it to secured a "spot". Regarding the ANADOLU sources - I copyedited what was in the article and did not notice the sources, I see now there were four ANADOLU sources; I removed all of them. Regarding a citation for the hook, I see a citation for the bit about the living room/shooting range and I added a non-ANADOLU citation for the 2024 olympic qualifying.
