  • Comment: The number of national records can be changed to 3 if her São Toméan records are omitted (ALT1). I'm not sure how to reword the hook though without being redundant, i.e. "21 Portuguese national championship titles and 3 Portuguese national records." ALT2's wording isn't very precise either because "national records" could still include her São Toméan ones.
  • Improved to Good Article status by Yue (talk). Number of QPQs required: 1. Nominator has 30 past nominations.

    • I was the GAN reviewer, so I won't do this DYKN review, but I would like to propose ALT3 to give another option:
      ... that Naide Gomes (pictured) broke the Portuguese long jump record fourteen times in her career, raising it from 6.56 metres to 7.12 metres?
    It's based on this source. – Editør (talk) 19:24, 27 January 2025 (UTC)
    General: Article is new enough and long enough
    Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
    Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
    Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
    QPQ: Done.

    Overall: New enough (GA on January 23, 2025); Long enough (15863 characters); Sourced, neutral, and free of copyright violations (Earwig does return a high value, but it is due to direct quotations); The picture is free, clear at 100 pixels, and used within the article.

    The hooks are cited and interesting, but as you mention in the comment, ALT2 is imprecise and ALT1 is redundant. ALT0 is somewhat misleading (I'd think from the wording that she held 6 Portuguese national records), but maybe I'm being too nitpicky. ALT3 is perfect. Approving ALT0 and ALT3 only, with a preference towards ALT3. AmateurHi$torian (talk) 21:14, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
