Make U Bounce

[edit]
  • ... that the music video for "Make U Bounce" features a woman with massive hands causing carnage out of revenge?

Created by Launchballer (talk). Self nominated at 17:55, 23 June 2014 (UTC).

Done.--Launchballer 09:31, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

Let me suggest:

  • ALT1 ... that the music video for "Make U Bounce" features a woman in no mood for butt-nonsense wreaking revenge with her massive hands?

  • The article is new enough and long enough. QPQ was done. Both hooks are short enough. While both hooks have in-line citations, neither citation is a reliable source. The article has a maintenance template on it questioning the article's verifiability. Chris Troutman (talk) 07:00, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
You may be right about source reliability. I was just looking to improve the hook wording. EEng (talk) 15:14, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
Earlier on I took out The Daily Star and Imvdb.com, but my computer stopped recognised the DNS lookup of this website before I could report it here. Any other unreliable sources?--Launchballer 16:25, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
Notabledance.com and Ministryofsound.com both look unreliable. At this point you have no reliable sources for your hooks even once you remove the maintenance template. The link for Daily Star goes to a disambiguation page so I'm not sure what it refers to, but I had assumed it was a newspaper. Chris Troutman (talk) 19:13, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
The Daily Star I have fixed the link to. Michig, in an exchange on his talk page, has advised me that it is acceptable as one reviewer's opinion; would Notabledance.com be the same? Notabledance.com has been removed.--Launchballer 19:51, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
Your 4Music source is questionable; the current version of "Top 20" doesn't discuss the videos on the list so I'm doubtful a previous version (for which you haven't provided a link) included that information, either. I added a link to a different 4Music article to source the essential point in the hooks and removed the banner template. For what it's worth, I prefer the first hook to EEng's ALT1.

This Week's Fresh Music Top 20 contains captions at the bottom of the videos (which I am told by Channel 4 customer services are called lozenges).--Launchballer 19:20, 11 August 2014 (UTC)
