  • @Narutolovehinata5:, Thanks for the article. This is a suggestion: could you expand the article slightly to give some idea of what it means to have a "tofu mentality"? For those of us who won't be able to read the original sources if we click through, the current Wikipedia article gives no explanation of the hook. Mary Mark Ockerbloom (talk) 20:26, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
For what it's worth, the sources regarding the band only use "tofu mentality" without further elaboration (other than it was a term they gave to themselves), so I can't really add more to the article without doing original research. Technically, in Japanese, the term "tofu mentality" means something similar to what English speakers would call a "snowflake", although the article uses a literal translation of "豆腐メンタル" rather than the translated version (which is probably still accurate since the literal meaning is correct in Japanese). The full explanation about what the term means would probably not work for the band's article since it would delve into original research or even WP:COAT, but that's the explanation for context.

jp:豆腐メンタル maps to Snowflake (slang), so maybe a piped link to Snowflake (slang) in the hook would suffice?
have created redirect for tofu mentality, and updating hook below -Bogger (talk) 15:11, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
ALT0A... that the Japanese band Gohobi describes themselves as having a tofu mentality? (same source) -Bogger (talk) 14:43, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
I actually think the link would distract from the main article and divert clicks, so linking in the hook might not be a good idea. Should be fine for the article, though. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 04:00, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
"tofu mentality" ..? -Bogger (talk) 09:37, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
I mentioned in the original nomination comment that I'd leave it to the reviewer if "tofu mentality" should have quotes or not since I wasn't sure if they were necessary. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 11:44, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.
Overall: I believe the phrase tofu mentality should be linked in the hook, be placed in quotes, or both. If Narutolovehinata5 does not want the phrase linked, then placing it in quotes should suffice.
This hook is almost ready to go. Thanks for contributing this article to Wikipedia. — Newslinger talk 00:58, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
Thanks for the review. Regarding the source for Ōmori's departure, there's actually supposed to be a source in the article, but I commented it out because for some reason leaving it uncommented would trigger the blacklist and my edit would not go through. If you look at edit source, you will see the reference in question; maybe I just need to request a whitelist? The site itself isn't blacklisted, just that specific link, so I'm not sure what happened. The source itself is dead and the Internet Archive wasn't of much help in getting the original link, but based on a Twitter search, it appears that said news article was indeed the one which announced his departure. Regarding tofu mentality, I'd be okay with it being in quotes, although for reasons I mentioned above it might be a bad idea to link to it. Regarding translation, I'm not sure if it really is the case that the Translated template doesn't suffice, as I've used it multiple times in previous cases and it seemed to be fine just then, but if you want, I can do an edit regarding that when the issue with the Ōmori news source is addressed.

Hi Narutolovehinata5, thanks for pointing out the commented citation. The gohobi.site URL was unintentionally blocked as a false positive by a broad spam blacklist filter entry that targeted a link-spamming sockpuppeteer who has been inactive for 7 years. I've removed the filter and uncommented the citation. In the future, problematic filter entries can be removed with a request at MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist § Proposed removals, although I understand they may be difficult to track down. I'm still not entirely sure about citing a dead link with no available archived version for a claim about a living person, but since this claim is unrelated to the hook, I think I can overlook it for this DYK submission.
For the translation attribution, I would prefer to see the dummy edit in the article history per WP:RIA. The WP:TFOLWP guideline seems to be one of the lesser-known ones that are not consistently followed or enforced, but if there is consensus against requiring attribution in this way, I think the correct way to resolve this conflict would be to propose a change to the guideline (and to the Help:Translation § Licensing section) than to ignore it for this DYK submission. — Newslinger talk 04:40, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
I have done the dummy edit as requested. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 05:36, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
Good to go!​ (To clarify, ALT0 with quotes around "tofu mentality" seems to be the best option.) — Newslinger talk 05:44, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
