• @Road Atlanta Turn 5: The article has been expanded more than 5 times in the last week, has no obvious errors, is fully cited, and the hook is cited. However, 'almost' is doing a lot of heavy lifting and seems almost like clickbait IMO. The article insinuates that she could have reached Formula One if the team was accepted, which it did not due to an unexplained reason. The current hooks seems like she was almost about to compete in Formula One, while according to the article, she did not even qualify to do so. Can my points be addressed in the hook and article? is it safe to assume this is your first time in DYK? I don't want to scare you off, and I am willing to stay around and help out to improve the article. Please ping me whenever you are ready. Cheers! GGOTCC 00:34, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

• @GGOTCC: Apologies for the mistakes, it's my first time in DYK but I have thought about a new hook that could maybe be better. If there is anything else I should fix don't hesitate to tell me. Thanks! "...that Misato Haga went from being a race queen to the founder of a team that attempted to join Formula One?

• • @Road Atlanta Turn 5: No need to apologize, that's why I am here :) ! You are clearly the expert on this topic; to my eyes as someone without a background in racing, I was most interested in her carrer path from a race queen to a team founder/manager. Do you think this could work as more intersting hook, such as:
• ALT2: ... that Misato Haga began her carrer as a race queen before she lead her own motor racing team?

• • @GGOTCC: I think this one can do, i'd just fix the typo "carrer" to "career" and to me this suggestion looks fine. I thank you so much for the suggestion and help!
• ALT3: ... that Misato Haga began her career as a race queen before she lead her own motor racing team?

• • @Road Atlanta Turn 5: Thanks for catching my typo! No objects to ALT3, good to go. Congrats on your first DYK! I hope you stay around! GGOTCC 03:50, 2 May 2025 (UTC)
