| |
| − | <br> - Hotel names and company names should be capitalized. This was a good fact choice! This is a lot of info to pack into one sentence and the grammar can be very tricky to navigate, so breaking this up into smaller sentences will make it easier. Any fact that adds detail but is not the main point can be put in commas such as "held at Tokyo's Hotel Grand Palace".

| |
| − | | |
| − | You did a nice job! Your second sentence required some more commas, so next time if you have a long sentence, read it out loud and see where you naturally pause. That trick helps me figure out where to place them. You can also always break them up into smaller sentences with a bit less detail, and then expand in the next sentence.
