New reviewer needed to review Charlotte Haining fully as a separate nomination now that House Gospel Choir has been separated from this one. Striking all hooks that include House Gospel Choir. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:05, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
Article was new enough when nominated, and is long enough. Reviewing this revision: I don't see "Jane" in #1 and it's probably not an ideal source for such content. #2 is broken. What makes #3, #4, #6, #8, #14 reliable sources? #8 is a bit too closely paraphrased. Not DYK relevant, but there is some inconsistency in date format. I don't see "Loud LDN" in #15. ALT3 isn't sourced in text, ALT1 is OK. QPQ is OK.
@BlueMoonset: can we collapse the old reviews? I worry that having so many previous reviews around, in part about a different page, is more distracting than clarifying. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 08:18, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
- Spotify is accessible via 'Show credits', #2 works for me, and #3 is the Belgian subsidiary of Lee Cooper, probably comes under WP:ABOUTSELF. #6 and #8 are interviews. #14 is an ex-print magazine with a 40-year history, and seems to still have multiple staff, but I'm unnerved by the lack of an about page. Loud LDN was previously known as "Ladies Making Noise in London".--Launchballer 10:03, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
- I don't see a "show credits" button? For me #2 just shows a black box. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 07:15, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

- Hovering over the track should make three dots appear. "Show credits" would appear if you click those. However, I've replaced the ref anyway.--Launchballer 07:31, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

- Going to AGF then, but the close paraphrase still needs resolving. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 10:02, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

that should be recast a bit. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 10:47, 18 September 2023 (UTC)- That sentence now reads "They started working together after BCee, who was looking for vocalists anyway, saw her at Liquicity, prompting him to google her, come across her cover version of Major Lazer's "Lean On", and send her a track he had made as half of The Vanguard Project."--Launchballer 13:34, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

- Alright, the DYK template includes space for citations after each hook, so I was thinking it was mandatory, as citations can be seen after individual hooks in other nominations. I'll have a further look. FunkMonk (talk) 09:57, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

- I'll continue, with the caveat that I have no experience reviewing DYKs. The article has been expanded the required amount in the given time, has enough characters, the sourcing and hooks look good, though it seems to me alt 1 is a bit of an over-interpretation of what the source says. To quote the relevant part: "But it was when out in South Africa, promoting single 'Selfish Skies', which she had created with producer Atjazz, that Maddix found herself in Johannesburg’s House 22 enjoying “the best night I’d had in a long time”. “Everyone was singing along and it sounded so sweet. It was all house music and it felt so uplifting. I just thought, I want to do this more when I get back home.” It took her three years to “build up the courage” to create an Instagram post, asking whether followers might be interested in joining a house choir – a group of singers who would collaborate on gospel versions of house tracks." It looks like a bit of a leap to say she was inspired to form this particular group, when it seems quite a bit more vague than that (the experience in South Africa made her want to do it more, but what it directly led to was creating an Instagram post). But we might want a second opinion on this. FunkMonk (talk) 17:33, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
- @FunkMonk: I'm OK with striking ALT1 based on your feedback (and have struck the hook above so there's no confusion down the line). If you are now approving this, could you please confirm with the {{subst:DYKtick}} symbol? Cielquiparle (talk) 02:47, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
