  • ... ALT1 : ... that ... Pasang Lhamu Sherpa, one of the first Nepali women to climb K2, was named for the first Nepali woman to climb Everest? Source: "When Dawa Yangzum Sherpa, Pasang Lhamu Sherpa Akita and Maya Sherpa summited K2 on July 26, 2014, they were the first Sherpa and Nepalese women to climb it. Pasang Lhamu had been named after the first Nepalese woman who climbed Everest. " Mary Mark Ockerbloom (talk) 17:13, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
  • New enough, long enough, within policy (neutral, sourced, no copyvios); QPQ completed; hooks are appropriate and sourced. (Info about naming is near the end of the article.) I have suggested ALT1 as an alternative hook; it's interesting to know that she didn't get the same name by accident. Someone else will need to re-confirm the new hook so that this is good to go.

  • FWIW I think the new hook is an improvement — thanks! —David Eppstein (talk) 18:35, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
  • Approving ALT1 and striking the original hook. Otherwise relying on Mary Mark Ockerbloom's review. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:41, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
