Filli Vanilli

~~... that My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic episode "Filli Vanilli" references the lip-syncing scandal of the German-French R&B group Milli Vanilli?~~ Source: Tweet of the episode's writer

Reviewed: -
Comment: I created this yesterday. Everything apart from the plot is sourced, which is allowed per MOS:TVPLOT. Since this is my first DYK nomination, am I exempt from QPQ?

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Hook eligibility:

Cited: - see below
Interesting:

QPQ: None required.

Overall: Article is new enough, long enough, well-sourced, neutral and plagiarism-free. The hook is interesting; it is not exactly mentioned in the article, however, as it is not stated that the band is a band or that there was a scandal. The hook says the actual episode references the band but the tweet, and the article, only support that the title references it. QPQ not needed. Pamzeis (talk) 11:01, 8 November 2021 (UTC)

ALT1: ... that the title of the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic episode "Filli Vanilli" references the lip-syncing scandal of the German-French R&B duo Milli Vanilli? Source: same as above

Not sure if this is as interesting as the previous, but I'll give it a go. Also done a minor adjustment in the article itself. ~Styyx^{Talk? ^-^} 14:55, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
