Hai-Quan Mao
- ... that Hai-Quan Mao was elected an AIMBE fellow for engineering nanomaterials for regenerative medicine and drug delivery? Source: AIMBE announcement

On it. — LlywelynII 09:59, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
New enough; barely long enough (~1.6k elig. chars.); WP:BLP applies but nothing untoward; cited; odd Chinese name documented; Chinese-language citations missing translit (cf. WP:MOS-ZH) but that's easily fixed (done); translation of Chinese-language citations in |trans-title=welcome but not necessary; Earwig finds some stuff that could be reworded ("...He was a co-principal investigator at Johns Hopkins in Singapore...") but nothing that really rises to copyvio; source says "therapeutic delivery" but presumably means drugs since other forms of therapy can't be inserted via nanotech. QPQ done.
You'll get more hits on your article if your hook doesn't include additional links, but that's your call. — LlywelynII 10:21, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- @LlywelynII: Thanks for your review. I've reworded the "Johns Hopkins in Singapore" part and added a bit more info to the article. I mostly agree with your comment about not adding additional links. From my past experience, however, many editors/admins would insist on adding extra links, often without discussion, when the hook is in the prep area or queue. It's small stuff not worth sweating over. Cheers, -Zanhe (talk) 19:07, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
@Zanhe: we're going to have to spell out that acronym or no one will know what you're talking about. There's also too much linking in the hook. This leaves:- ALT0a: ... that Hai-Quan Mao was elected a fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering for engineering nanomaterials for regenerative medicine and drug delivery?
- Which is all very multisyllabic and technical, and has "engineering" two times. Could you suggest something hookier? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 22:36, 24 August 2019 (UTC)
- Just adding two alts to see what the nominator thinks.
- ALT1 ... that Hai-Quan Mao won the National University of Singapore's Young Investigator Award in 2002?
- ALT2 ... that chemist and nanotechnologist Hai-Quan Mao has been awarded 23 patents in the United States? SL93 (talk) 22:44, 24 August 2019 (UTC)

- I'm fine with SL93's hooks, although I still prefer ALT0 (being elected an AIMBE fellow is far more prestigious than being awarded a university prize). @Yoninah: I don't see why we have to spell out AIMBE and ruin the hook with the cumbersome full name. The AIMBE itself uses the acronym as its official name. Just check out its website (https://aimbe.org) and its logo. Users who're interested in finding out its full name can easily do so by clicking the link. -Zanhe (talk) 22:54, 24 August 2019 (UTC)
