Stoned at the Nail Salon

  • Comment: This is my first DYK nomination, and a self-nomination at that, so while I've read up on the rules and looked at other comparable nominations, there is probably some sort of mistake here. If there's any issue that needs improving with the hook or the article, let me know and I'll try my best to fix it.

Editing hook to add a link to Lawrence Arabia (James Milne), who I didn't realise had a Wikipedia article. –LivelyRatification (talk) 09:45, 22 July 2021 (UTC)


General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: None required.

Overall: Article new enough, long enough and is neutral and well-sourced. Earwig did not pick up anything major. I don't find ALT1 interesting but ALT0 is interesting and cited in article. However, while this may just be my personal preference, I think the hook should include that the song is written by Lorde and that it would be hookier without naming the backing artists (unless they're really big where they're from. Are they?) Nominator has no prior DYK credits so no QPQ needed. Pamzeis (talk) 03:57, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

Honestly, I do kind of agree about ALT1. Just provided it for the purpose of an alternative hook. As for ALT0, could these alternatives work? @Pamzeis:
