I will handle this review. Should be a quick one. An anonymous username, not my real name (talk) 00:59, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Early life[edit]

The source says she is "often pegged as a born-and-bred Motherwell girl", while the article makes a firmer statement of "Motherwell, North Lanarkshire, is often misidentified as her birthplace because she spent most of her childhood there". Since the source's initial statement is vague, maybe remove this part and focus on the various places she lived during childhood.

Career[edit]

Leung's voice was used in the video games Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. This uncited, undated statement, which is also its own paragraph, is rather jarring when reading through.
However, after attending a drama course at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, she was inspired. This sentence feels fragmentary, as though it was cut off midway.
an undocumented Chinese immigrant who sells pirate DVDs and stolen phones on the streets of Brixton in the hope of making a life for herself in the UK, but who first must pay her debts to the Snakeheads who smuggled her into Britain. Almost no paraphrasing from original source.
Leung next appeared in an episode of the BBC crime drama series Father Brown. This statement is unsourced.
In June 2021, Leung narrated the short audio story Off Course for Bibliophone. The story was the winner of a charity writing competition which raised money for the Scottish Refugee Council. Citation needed.

Personal life[edit]

The phrase "combat blindness" could come across as strange. What the article being loosely paraphrased says is "Sightsavers International works in over 30 countries across Africa, Asia and the Caribbean to treat and prevent avoidable blindness and to also improve life for those who are irreversibly blind".
She speaks fluent Cantonese and some Mandarin. Mandarin is not mentioned in the article this sentence cites.

Awards[edit]

This should be a table, as is standard.

Mostly good, but there are some issues that definitely must be addressed. I'm putting it on hold. I will always be available if needed. An anonymous username, not my real name (talk) 01:29, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you immensely for taking the time to look this article over. I have adjusted the wording in the places you noted, removed the unsourced / uncited material that you pointed out, and placed Ms. Leung's awards and nominations in a table format. Please let me know if there are any further adjustments that are required for Good Article status. Moloch Dhalgren (talk) 01:10, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You are most welcome. That should be all the article needs to meet GA criteria (no other copyright violations, stable, good images, broad in coverage, etc.), so I will pass it now. An anonymous username, not my real name (talk) 04:51, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
