  • New article, long enough, hook verified, no apparent copyvios. The Turkey's Grand Prix can be wikilinked to 2016_in_combat_sports#Judo_Grand_Prix in the article as well as in the hook. Maybe consider adding an infobox. Also, birthdate should be 3rd April. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 06:38, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
Dharmadhyaksha Typo on the dob corrected. Linking to what is just a messy list of events in a much larger article with no further detail adds nothing to the article, nor especially to the hook. I have added an infobox although it isn't required and in this case doesn't really add a great deal to the article - Basement12 (T.C) 08:59, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
Not linking to the article makes it appear like it was some non-notable event. And I asked to include infobox so you could add medals there. Did it now. GTG. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 09:35, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
