Hi! Look pretty much all good!

• "After hearing a demo by Garfunkel and Oates, written about a tomato and based on a pitch by Jeremy Konner," is a little clunky. Was it Konner who directed Obama to the song? Did G&O take a pitch from Konner to create the song about the tomato? Did Konner ask them to write the demo, the song didn't exist before? Who is Konner, anyway, a comedian, a producer? (I'm sure it says all this in the article, but this is just to show the process of me not understanding.)

1. Well written: Yes, other than the above, it's well-written and structured. I'm relatively unfamiliar with the duo in this context (I seen one video, but know them better as voice actors), but I had no issues understanding what was said, and it walked the line between completeness and brevity deftly.
2. Verifiable with no original research: No section of the article is without a source. Most sources are either traditional outlets (NYT, Elle, American Songwriter), the sources that aren't (HelloGiggles) present no reason to question their legitimacy, and what they're used as a source for is very simple and factual, so I deem them as also reliable. (Inherently, nothing in this topic is ever likely to be challenged.) No original research, no copyvio.
3. Broad in its coverage: Yes, a complete picture without going unnecessarily deep-dive.
4. Neutral: Yes.
5. Stable: Yes, stable edit history, and nothing on the talk page to speak of. (The suggestion that Nerdland credits them as Garfunkel and Oates is incorrect, based on the poster, and without a source connecting their choice of name to Mad or Family Guy, it's only unverified, original research.)
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio: Definitely clear as properly licensed.

So yeah, it's just the Mochi sentence left, before a pass. -- Zanimum (talk) 01:23, 7 May 2022 (UTC)

 Done, I think. Let me know if the change is okay. benǝʇᴉɯ 06:00, 7 May 2022 (UTC)
