  • Article has 5080 characters, copyvio unlikely (excluding mirror sites), nominated within due time, QPQ done. However, hook says "known as the "Royal Rebel"" while article and source says that she is "self-dubbed" royal rebel. I think inclusion of "self-dubbed" will make it more interesting. @WilliamThweatt: if you have any alternative hook or some explanation then please let me know. --Human3015TALK  01:24, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
  • "Self-dubbed" would indeed make it more interesting. I wrote the hook as "known as the "Royal Rebel"" because her popular column in the Phnom Penh Post (one of the most widely-read national papers in Cambodia) was called "Royal Rebel, The Social Agenda with Princess Soma Norodom", so it was a popular moniker for her. But, as currently written and cited, "self-dubbed" is more defensible. How about: ALT1: "... that Cambodian Princess Soma Norodom, the self-dubbed "Royal Rebel", is known for her exposé newspaper columns about Corruption in Cambodia?"--William Thweatt TalkContribs 01:50, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
Good to go for ALT1. One can Wikilink Corruption in Cambodia directly instead of wikilinking Corruption in Cambodia and Cambodia separately.--Human3015TALK  02:07, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
I made that change when promoting the article. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 03:01, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
