Jan O. Jansson[edit]

(

)

... that ....Jan O. Jansson (pictured) appeared nude in the music video for singer Markoolio's song "Vilse i skogen", as the water spirit Neck from Swedish folktales?

ALT1:... that ....Jan O. Jansson (pictured) has the nickname "Nude-Janne" because he walked around nude in most episodes of the two seasons he participated in The Farm?

Article is new and long enough. QPQ done today (reviewed article not promoted yet). Article has inline online sources in Swedish which I can read. I prefer hook nb. 1. which is sourced. I corrected the timeframe for the video named in the hook, and when I checked a number of sentences in the beginning of the "Career" section, I couldn't find information given in those sentences in the provided sources. Unless I have overlooked something this needs be corrected (sources 6 and 7 do not back up the information they were supposed to support, as far as I can see). Photo is labelled as own work and appears to be legit, I am not sure it will work so well on the front page.

(There also appears to be some problems with the formatting of the DYKnoms; I don't know how to fix that) Iselilja (talk) 19:03, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Addition: I think the hook probably should be copyedited slightly, maybe to say
ALT2 "... that Jan O. Jansson (pictured) appeared nude when he portrayed the water spirit Neck in a music video for singer Markoolio?" Iselilja (talk) 19:11, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Thank you!- Yes I support that hook change Iselilja. --BabbaQ (talk) 22:15, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

I think I have taken care of the issues you mentioned correctly as well.--BabbaQ (talk) 22:21, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Article new enough, long enough. ALT2 hook verified. QPQ done. Good to go. Hawkeye7 (talk) 21:54, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Might I suggest to whoever closes this that the image is used at the DYK section. The hook is quite funny so a photo of this person might be nice for once as the DYK section is often filled with more serious subjects.--BabbaQ (talk) 22:02, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

I'm serious about this: "appeared nude" makes it sound, for a second or two, as if it only looks like he's nude. EEng (talk) 02:53, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

Well, as ALT1 is the hook that will most likely be used there is no problem.--BabbaQ (talk) 08:37, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
