New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. I have moved the cites out of the infobox and started a new section for her Musical style. The hooks are interesting, but it is not clear from the source exactly when she completed her GED, so ALT1 is the preferred hook. However, the article does not mention the hook fact about the album dealing with depression and drug abuse amongst modern-day youth. No QPQ needed for nominator with less than 5 DYK credits; the submitted QPQ is not complete. Yoninah (talk) 16:26, 29 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Yoninah: I have adapted ALT1 to correctly quote the Nouse article. I never indicated that the nominator with less than 5 DYK credits needed to complete a QPQ. What more must I do to complete the submitted QPQ? heyitsben!! ^talk 10:41, 9 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@HeyitsBen: Hi, I'm sorry my matter-of-fact reviewing style wasn't clear to you. I was stating that you, the nominator, have less than 5 DYK credits and so do not need to submit a QPQ. However, since you did submit a QPQ, I was noting that that review was incomplete.
Thank you for tweaking the ALT1, but in future please strike out the hook you don't want and write a new hook with a sequential number (ALT2, ALT3, etc.) underneath. I restored the thread and renumbered your alt.
Per WP:DYK#Eligibility criteria 3. Cited hook, all the hook facts must appear in the nominated article. However, the facts which touches on themes of drug abuse, mental health and other issues that modern day youth struggle with do not appear in the article. Your ALT2 hook is also quite long. Seems to me depression and drug abuse is plenty description, as long as it is mentioned and cited in the article. Yoninah (talk) 18:48, 11 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Yoninah and HeyitsBen: It's been over a month since the last comments here, is everything good to go now? Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 04:42, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Narutolovehinata5: no, the nominator has not done anything to address the hook issue. I have struck ALT2 because the facts are not mentioned or cited in the article. As far as I'm concerned, this nomination looks abandoned. Yoninah (talk) 13:17, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've let the nom one last message. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 11:33, 16 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
