... that Harry Styles' goddaughter sings the opening vocals on "As It Was"? Source: Billboard

The article was recently created, long enough, referenced and neutral. Earwig picked up a quote from the director of the music video, but it should be fine. The hook is sourced and interesting. The image in the article is fair use. QPQ done. Good to go. Corachow (talk) 19:31, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- the article's popularity has invited over 120 edits since this review, introducing a few unsourced paragraphs and a general question of stability. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 08:43, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - I have edited the new paragraphs and made sure about the sourcing. Don't think minor instability on articles about new and popular songs is rare or a matter of concern.--N Ø 10:31, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - sourcing question seems resolved; since there's no consensus to add stability as a DYK requirement, this is good to go (but the promoter should check all additions made since this comment). theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 02:48, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      - While the hooks says that the goddaughter sings the opening vocals, neither the article nor the source says this. What does everyone think of ALT0a below:
        ALT0a: ... that Harry Styles' goddaughter voices the opening lyrics on "As It Was"?
      - @MaranoFan, Corachow, and Theleekycauldron: Thoughts? Z1720 (talk) 00:43, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
        ALT0a looks just as good to me.--N Ø 02:11, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
