  • New enough and long enough. No QPQ needed (3rd DYK nom). Image is freely licensed. I cannot view ALT1 (paywall) and don't know if I like the topic as a hook, but ALT0—relying on a video—is a touch flimsy for my taste (which is a shame, as that is the best hook by far and I'd prefer it to run over ALT2). ALT2 is fine. No other issues. [Disclosure: I provided a NewspaperArchive clipping for this page at the nominator's request.] Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 19:22, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Sammi Brie: I've added another punny hook as ALT3, sourced to an interview; it's also been added to the article. Let me know what you think. Yeeno (talk) 🍁 21:08, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Theleekycauldron Yikes! Didn't see this. ALT3 is approved as well. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 19:52, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No worries, Sammi Brie, but are you sure? OilersNation doesn't look so reliable to me, it looks like a fan website for the Edmonton Oilers with little editorial oversight... theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (they/she) 08:20, 7 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Theleekycauldron:: They are part of the relatively large NationNetwork and have a masthead, if that helps. Yeeno (talk) 🍁 04:51, 8 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Yeeno: Looks like the masthead is from a year after the publication date of the article, which is written by "baggedmilk"—if this website is credible now, I don't think it was then. theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (they/she) 09:12, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Promoter's comment: I'll take ALT2 for now—if there's ever sturdier sourcing for ALT3, i'd be more than happy to swap it in :) theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (they/she) 08:19, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
