This seems to be in decent shape. I will do a review of this.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 09:24, 20 October 2025 (UTC)

Lead

• I felt it isn't really clear initially what party she's from or was from. But otherwise the lead seems good as an overview of her political appointments.
• Early life and education looks good

Career

• in 1990, one year after that, "one year after that" is quite unnecessary
• Puteri UMNO briefly explain what this is. Also add link to the Malay-language article
• Following her successful outcomes rewrite to Following her successes
• In the 2013 general election, Azalina defended her Pengerang seat with 26,992 votes out of 37,999 eligible voters I would add a bit who she was contesting against
• as chairman of the FINAS First use of FINAS here. Need to explain what the abbreviation is
• rejoined the cabinet the next day as Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Just a little clarification - while she was Minister of Youth and Sports and later Minister of Tourism, wouldn't she be in the Cabinet? Are there also known reasons why she only served in these positions rather briefly?
• led to calls for her resignation from Ngeh Koo Ham, who said her comments undermined the rule of law Would mention which party is Ngeh Koo Ham from.

Election results

• One slight quibble: I think mentioning her name is unnecessary since we know its the results of the subject. So just showing the party she's affiliated to is probably enough, but keep the opposing candidate.

No issues for the other sections. Will do a source spot-check soon.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 13:43, 22 October 2025 (UTC)

Source review

• Earwig only flags some common phrases.
• Per this revision
• Refs 6, 12, 18, 24, 40, 44 check out
• Ref 16 doesn't really support she heard it through a radio.
• Ref 30 needs archived link. Actually, I'm unsure whether it's even needed since it only could show up to 2008 (she only faced contested elections in 2013 onwards), and even the archived website doesn't seem to work. I recommend finding a more updated link, probably this website.
• Think for Ref 36 it's better to link to

That's all for the review. Putting on hold until above issues are addressed.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 11:22, 23 October 2025 (UTC)

@ZKang123: Done! Let me know if there's anything else you think should be revised. Pangalau (talk) 01:53, 24 October 2025 (UTC)

...Did you accidentally delete the election results table?--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 02:01, 24 October 2025 (UTC)

@ZKang123: Oops, it has been restored with the recommended changes applied. Pangalau (talk) 02:53, 24 October 2025 (UTC)

Made a few other changes. Happy to pass.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 04:10, 24 October 2025 (UTC)
