Meghan Trainor

[edit]
  • ... that American singer-songwriter Meghan Trainor released three independent albums before signing with Epic Records?
    • ALT1:... that Meghan Trainor was part of a cover band which included her aunt, younger brother and father?

  • Hi, I came by to promote this, but as the band has no Wikipedia article, it's not going to pass muster with the folks at DYK. You could leave out the name of the band, or you could propose another hook; this is a GA, after all. Yoninah (talk) 17:46, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
Yoninah, Is the first hook fine in that case? The fact that she released three independent albums before Title is a fairly interesting but very rarely known fact. Alternatively, I’ve also removed the band’s name from the ALT if that makes it useable. Cheers!—NØ 18:45, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
  • MaranoFan if someone has heard of her, would they be interested? But more importantly, if someone (like me) has never heard of her, would they be interested? These hooks are not interesting to me. If the hook fact itself is interesting, it doesn't matter who the person is. Do you have an interesting tidbit in the article?

  • Yoninah, if you have any suggestions after browsing through the article, then please by all means list them ASAP so I can review and (hopefully) approve them. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 22:37, 19 December 2018 (UTC)

  • I've added three more hooks to choose from but I'm not sure Yoninah will like any of these. If none of these are suitable then just fail the nom I guess. Regards. But if this does get passed, I'd really like it to appear on the main page on December 22 (Trainor's birthday).--NØ 06:20, 20 December 2018 (UTC)
MaranoFan, you should specify a nation for that last ALT. Here's hoping Yoninah likes these better. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 13:00, 20 December 2018 (UTC)
  • ALT3 is nice and hooky. SNUGGUMS, please approve it and I'll promote it. Thanks all, Yoninah (talk) 13:50, 20 December 2018 (UTC)
