• Hi, I came by to promote this, and replaced the source with the more reliable Guinness World Records site. You will see that I added the length of time she has voiced the character; that would seem to improve the hook as well. Yoninah (talk) 20:45, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

• The nominator has just been blocked for a period of six months. I would like to propose this alt hook and would appreciate feminist coming back to review it:
• ALT2: ... that in 2019, Japanese voice actress Midori Katō earned a Guinness World Record for having voiced the same character in the anime Sazae-san for 50 years and 1 day? Yoninah (talk) 20:54, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

• for ALT2. I am aware that the nominator has been blocked, I just don't see how this affects my approval. feminist (talk) 04:22, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

• @Feminist: it doesn't. Thanks for the re-review. Yoninah (talk) 14:18, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
