:* [[File:Symbol question.svg|16px]] This is my first DYK review, so who knows if I'm doing this right :-) Article created less than seven days ago. No previous ITN or DYK involvement. Sufficiently long and not a stub. Article looks well referenced, and at first glance, all the sources appear to be [[WP:RS]]. Nit: I can't find the style rule, but it's my understanding that there should be consistent ordering to citations, so things like, ''sold over two million copies by 1993.[6][1]'' don't happen, so that should be fixed. I verified the hook citation; the sentence it's in has 3 sources; it would be cleaner if it was refactored so the statement has a single reference to make verification easier. I found it in the 1000 CEO's source via google books. There's a few places which aren't neutral in tone ("one of the most important people", "generous bonus", "dismal failure", "great success"). These should be cleaned up. Earwig shows no copyvio issues. No dispute templates. Article is a [[WP:BLP]], but no obvious issues. The hook seems fine. -- [[User:RoySmith|RoySmith]] [[User Talk:RoySmith|(talk)]] 02:53, 17 October 2018 (UTC) | :* [[File:Symbol question.svg|16px]] This is my first DYK review, so who knows if I'm doing this right :-) Article created less than seven days ago.

Created by Frayae (talk). Self-nominated at 19:52, 16 October 2018 (UTC).
This is my first DYK review, so who knows if I'm doing this right :-) Article created less than seven days ago. No previous ITN or DYK involvement. Sufficiently long and not a stub. Article looks well referenced, and at first glance, all the sources appear to be WP:RS. Nit: I can't find the style rule, but it's my understanding that there should be consistent ordering to citations, so things like, sold over two million copies by 1993.[6][1] don't happen, so that should be fixed. I verified the hook citation; the sentence it's in has 3 sources; it would be cleaner if it was refactored so the statement has a single reference to make verification easier. I found it in the 1000 CEO's source via google books. There's a few places which aren't neutral in tone ("one of the most important people", "generous bonus", "dismal failure", "great success"). These should be cleaned up. Earwig shows no copyvio issues. No dispute templates. Article is a WP:BLP, but no obvious issues. The hook seems fine. -- RoySmith (talk) 02:53, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- Template:Re I have fixed the tone issues except for "regarded as one of the most important people in the Chinese software industry" which is very close to what it says in Zhang, and in numerous Chinese news reports. I moved some of the citations around to try and make it a bit clearer. — Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 10:25, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- I found an on-line location for your 1000 CEOs source. Could you go through the other unlinked sources and see if you can find on-line versions for them? Not required, but convenient for the reader. The other thing I spotted is your reference 11. It just says, Kingsoft Chairman and CEO Qiu Bojun announces retirement plan 2011, Shanghai. with no real reference. Looking at earlier drafts, it was more complete, but got messed up somewhere prior to here. Fix that, and I think this is ready to go. -- RoySmith (talk) 13:32, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- Template:Re I linked Google Books on all the book references, and fixed reference 11. — Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 14:11, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- Template:Re When I navigate to https://search-proquest.com/docview/875708954, it times out. Are you sure this is the correct URL? Behind a paywall or something, maybe? -- RoySmith (talk) 14:25, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- Template:Re Yes if I click it then libezproxy will deal with it as the article itself is on Proquest. I can't find any normal url for it
so have copied what it says below. — Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 14:48, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
