QPQ: Done.

Overall: @Joseph2302: minor citation needed above. Also, do you think it would help to write out "cross-country skiing" in ALT0 even though it adds a little repetition? When I first read it, I thought she medaled in both cross-country running and roller skiing, just because running is what comes to mind when I hear "cross-country" (could just be me though). Anyways, nice work. DanCherek (talk) 17:42, 21 April 2021 (UTC) DanCherek (talk) 17:42, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

DanCherek I have added source for DOB. And fine to put skiing twice so it doesn't look like an WP:EASTEREGG hook:
ALT2: ... that Linn Sömskar (pictured) has won medals at World Cups in both cross-country skiing and roller skiing? Joseph2302 (talk) 17:57, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks, this should be good to go. Both hooks are fine; I like ALT2 a little more because it talks about how she's good at two sports. DanCherek (talk) 20:10, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
