General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
  • Cited: Yes - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith
  • Interesting: Yes
QPQ: None required.

Overall: I reviewed all proposed hooks and only Alt2 would be acceptable at present. Alt1 would fail as the number of songs does not appear with a citation in the article, and I would in any case be worried they may release more songs before this is hook appears on the main page. The original hook fails as not all of these bands are mentioned as having been covered by the Linda Lindas.

Earwig did highlight some similarities and while we should be careful of this, in this case they appear to be incidental, e.g. they consist of common words or phrases which could not be easily avoided without the result reading oddly. I personally would not fail a review for this in this case, but it may be worth addressing in case the promoter feels differently.

I assume good faith on the non-English source provided for Alt2.

@CSJJ104: Did some sourcing, any thoughts? {{The Sharpest Lives|💬|✏️|ℹ️}} 18:25, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Changes resolve the issues I had with this nomination and I am happy to approve Alt2 only. I AGF on the non-English source but could verify the facts elsewhere. Thanks for the good work. CSJJ104 (talk) 19:39, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
