Original: "... that Melanie Martinez's song, "Death", debuts at #95 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it her first appearance since her time on The Voice?"ALT 1: "... that Melanie Martinez's song, "Death", was her first chart hit over a decade, since The Voice?"- ALT 2: "... that Melanie Martinez's song, "Death", was her first chart hit in over a decade?"
ALT 3: "... that Melanie Martinez's song, "Death", was her first chart hit on the Billboard Hot 100, over a decade?"
There is a maintenance tag on the "Music video" section. Also, I'm not sure the hook is particularly catching, charting at number 95 is not a significant achievement (compared to, say, top five). Maybe instead have a hook that says it was her first chart hit in over a decade? Also, a QPQ is required. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 19:26, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Ritchie333, I do not know what's a QPQ, and I have put three alternatives. If you would like to give it a try, add one. — JuanGLP (talk + contribs) 22:05, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
- QPQ is "Quid pro quo" ie: review a nomination when you add a new one, although I see you've now done this. I like ALT2 the best. There's still the issue of the "unsourced" tag on the article. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 14:35, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Ritchie333, I changed the hook and the "unsourced" tag has been fixed. — JuanGLP (talk + contribs) 14:47, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
Okay, that should be sufficient to get on the main page now. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 15:05, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

@JuanGLP and Ritchie333: The hook is cited in the nomination but not in the article. Also should the hook (ALT2) have the word "in" over a decade?
- @Bruxton: The cite is in the article and I added the word "in". (Also, please sign your comments.) — JuanGLP (talk + contribs) 18:16, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
