Treat Me

(

Created by VersaceSpace (talk). Self-nominated at 17:03, 5 August 2022 (UTC).

  • @VersaceSpace: New enough and long enough. QPQ present. No copyvio. But I've got an issue—I watched the video to confirm, and that's definitely a leopard. (I spent years watching Big Cat Diary and used to have a cheetah fursona... I know my spots.) That's the sort of thing that makes me question the already flimsy-looking YR Media cite source. Can you please find one that can get its big cats straight? Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 17:42, 6 August 2022 (UTC)
  • Agree with Sammi Brie - the hook is clearly untrue. That isn't a cheetah, which suggests that the cited source is not reliable. Not appropriate to put clearly untrue hooks into DYK. OwainDavies (about)(talk) edited at 11:48, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
I've struck the original hook owing to factuality concerns. In the meantime here's some alternate hooks:
ALT1 ... that Chloe Bailey wrote her song "Treat Me" while exiting a relationship?
ALT2 ... that to promote her song "Treat Me", Chloe Bailey released a teaser video depicting her wearing a bodysuit with crystals?

Narutolovehinata5, I'm fine with either of these, although I have concerns about them being interesting. It may be ideal to search for a more reliable source that describes the animal present in the music video. —VersaceSpace 🌃 21:41, 20 August 2022 (UTC)
To be honest, I don't think either of my suggestions are spectacular either, but there's really no other option I can still see in the article. In any case, given the concerns about the cheetah/leopard thing above, it may be a good idea to simply omit that part from the article for now unless a better source can be found.

  • I found this: interview by Hot 97. It says "leopard" both in text, and the video interview's above (leopard discussed at 3:33). Seems reliable? --LordPeterII (talk) 09:58, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
If that source is used, maybe we can use this hook instead?
ALT0a ... that Chloe Bailey dances next to a leopard in the music video for her song "Treat Me"?

@Narutolovehinata5, @LordPeterII: the source and hook both look good to me. Thanks for your help. —VersaceSpace 🌃 03:22, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
Article now corrected with the proposed source. I'm sure there are better sources, but a primary seems appropriate here. —VersaceSpace 🌃 03:30, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
I would support ALT0a with the correct cat. I see the Harper's Bazaar source calls it a tiger, so it seems cat confusion is a bit more commonplace than I'd thought. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 01:11, 26 August 2022 (UTC)
@Sammi Brie: Wait whaat? o.O How on earth can someone mix up a leopard and a tiger?! Cheetah is at least roughly the same size, but a frickin tiger... just wow. We might really need Cat confusion at some point XD --LordPeterII (talk) 08:45, 26 August 2022 (UTC)
