Interesting bio on fine sources, no copyvio obvious. I like the original hook and approve that one. It clearly says that Spider is a Black woman musician, which I miss in all ALTS, and actually also in the lead of the article; I think that her Nigerian background should be mentioned there. My English is not good enough to tell a difference between "on the grounds" and a simple "because", but I know that the former phrase appears in the article in two sentences in a row, which I believe should be avoided. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:51, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Both done.--Launchballer 17:19, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Launchballer, it seems to me that the article is incorrect in attributing her resumption of production during COVID to feeling there were not enough Black women in the industry; the source says that she had this feeling in school, before moving to London. This goes for other sources like this one as well, where her "[disappointment at] the seeming lack of diversity" is described as being around 2016.
Gerda Arendt, considering the problem with ALT0, are any of the other hooks approved? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 20:15, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, scratch some of that, the hook doesn't have a problem because it doesn't state a date and can probably rely on the lengthy quote for WP:DYKCITE (although that seems fairly lengthy from a copyright perspective), so no need for the alt hooks to be considered. Sorry for the ping Gerda. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 20:18, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've taken a bit out of the quote, though I'm now wondering if I've taken out necessary context. I'm a bit confused by your two-part post - what else do I need to do?--Launchballer 06:15, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies for the confusion Launchballer; I felt that in the "Career" section, "feeling that that there were not enough Black women making alternative music is incorrectly placed—the cited sources are clear that she had this thought long before COVID. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 01:19, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think I've solved this.--Launchballer 01:54, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Not a review, and I review oldest first so would not get to this any time soon (but would not object to any other reviewer doing so in the interim); both hooks violate WP:NPOV and have been struck. I've also removed one sentence that also violated WP:NPOV, so this is now below 1500 characters.--Launchballer 20:17, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • Given that it is midnight for me (in the UK), I will expand this article and think of a compliant hook ~10 hours from now after my sleep. I may even have to think about a hook that doesn't have something to do with the lo-fi music. JuniperChill (talk) 22:59, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • Done the expansion to at least 1500 characters (can also be 1.5kb), now I am thinking of the following hooks.

For both, the sources came from https://www.eurogamer.net/coffee-talk-creator-fahmi-has-passed-away

No, it can't "also be 1.5kb" - WP:DYKRULES specifies "1500 characters". ALT3 is the better hook, although I'd expect a more merciless prepbuilder to truncate it at "died". Full review needed.--Launchballer 10:45, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just long enough, well refed, everything else GTG. Strongly suggest cutting ALT3 for reading clarity:

Where is your reference for the demo version being released in January 2022? I just went in to give this a copyedit for promotion but found that that fact did not check out to the source.--Launchballer 17:40, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I quite enjoyed ALT1 but it's not really correct @Tails Wx and PSA: the source includes the quote "the sea lion remained inside the zoo, never breaching the zoo’s secondary perimeter" and is clear that she only managed to escape her enclosure. I've thus struck the hook; it will need rephrasing as ALT1a if it is desired that it runs. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 20:30, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not happy with 'recently'; hooks must not be likely to change.--Launchballer 17:41, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Azcolvin429: Another issue with recently is that it's relative to the field but if that's unclear, it could give folks a misleading impression. 2008/7 is recent for the discovery of species, but not recent in other ways. Back in 2007, you could pull your Blackberry out of your ombré jeans and text your friends to meet you at Blockbuster Video so you all could rent a DVD to play on your PS2. Some people could read the hook as meaning that it was discovered earlier this year. I thought some of the reproduction information cited to Rathbun was interesting, including that they're monogamous but spend little time together and the quick development of the offspring, "mall versions of adults and are able to run swiftly within an hour of birth". Good luck, whichever way you go, Rjjiii (talk) 06:24, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    • The article was expanded and nominated today (21 April 2024).
    • The article has been expanded more than fivefold (more like 20x).
    • The article is well sourced. I did one spot check and the reference checked out.
    • The article is written in a neutral and non-promotional tone.
    • Earwig did not pick up anything.
    • QPQ provided.
    • The hook has the right length and is interesting. The part of the hook on him being hired and the quote itself is well sourced. However, I struggle a bit with the part on him being "a critic of the spoils system". I think you rely here on Smith 1981 (pp. 82–83). I see that he criticized particulars of the spoils system there. But whether this elevates him to an outright critic of the system I am unsure. Maybe a weaker statement like "[...] who had criticized the political patronage system earlier [...]" would be more reflective of the source? What do you think?

The article itself is long, was moved to the mainspace just today, is based on reliable sources, and looks fully complete.

Pac-Man PHD (talk) 08:27, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Though Earwig found likely copyvio, it's basing that off of a direct quote from the contents of the proposal, an open and free document that is properly attributed to, so it shouldn't be a violation. I think this is all in order. Still, felt it should be mentioned in case the author wants to paraphrase the contents of the proposal or if an administrator takes issue with it.

  • Nominated soon enough after GA. Meets length and citation requirements. Hook is absolutely interesting and the right length. The content of the hook is referenced in the article and a citation is appended immediately after where it appears. The image appears to come from a Nazi German government source, which means it's almost certainly in the public domain. Only concern is with the image's visibility at a smaller scale; going to just leave that up to promoter discretion. QPQ done (a quick-fail of novice nomination). Overall great work! ~ Pbritti (talk) 21:47, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • The article was created yesterday, so is new enough. It is much more than long enough and properly uses in-line citations. AGF on proper paraphrasing of the offline sources was used. Both hooks are interesting and cited in-line, with the first one being better I think (though perhaps need some commas?). The only thing holding up this review, Alessandro57, is that the QPQ hasn't been done yet. SilverserenC 21:37, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • What a ride that article was. QPQ not needed. Earwig has a high score for copyvio detection, but that's entirely due to Messi's paragraph-long statement in the "Departure and Japan trip" section, which has an inline citation to the flagged source. Referencing is adequate and length/newness criteria fulfilled. Hook is definitely interesting and cited in source, not cited inline as exact phrasing but separately so. Good to go. Juxlos (talk) 10:13, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Cypp0847 and Juxlos: I have tagged the article for copyediting, as there are grammar-related issues throughout the article (tenses, for instance, are very often incorrect). This needs to be resolved before a DYK run. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 01:39, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • New enough, long enough, and properly sourced. No QPQ needed. Earwig found no problematic copied wording. Good-enough hook, but one must synthesize a couple pieces of information in the article to obtain it: the "largest township" part is at the end of the town section, dated to the early 19th century, while the "deserted" part is at the end of the "clearance" section. In fact both facts are adjacent in the "Maverick Guide to Scotland" source, with much tighter dating (largest in 1815; cleared between 1814 and 1818) and to avoid problems with WP:SYN the article would benefit from making them adjacent somewhere within it, footnoted to that source. Also, "deserted" is maybe a euphemism for what happened. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:14, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks David. What if the sentence in the Town section said "Before the clearance, it was the largest of 49 townships in Strathnaver"? That would would be consistent with the Maverick Guide guide source and not change up the current before-during-after structure. I could also change the sentence in the Clearance section to say "completely deserted by 1818" to avoid any ambiguity.
I think "deserted" is, from a NPOV, the end result of what happened, it describes what's left. You could say "forcibly depopulated" or something but I think "deserted" is clear enough and used in the sources. -- D'n'B-t -- 18:42, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
To me, "deserted" is an accurate and neutral description of the state of the place now, but not of the process by which it reached that state. How about
  • ALT1 ... that before its inhabitants were evicted, Rosal was the largest of 49 townships in Strathnaver?
but that would require a new reviewer as I can't both propose hooks and approve them. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:00, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'd be happy with that ALT1, (although with the link just saying "Rosal" for preference). -- D'n'B-t -- 19:08, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That was an unintentional omission. I've piped the link as you originally did now. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:00, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ALT1 short enough, cited, and interesting, though may be worth adding "in Scotland" per WP:DYKINT. Let's roll.--Launchballer 06:25, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
