... that after making Moondog, Moondog developed his worldview and fashion style before making Moondog? Source: Moondog: The Viking of 6th Avenue, chapter 4 ("In addition to new surroundings and forms, Moondog was encountering at about this time theories of art and ethics that influenced him substantially. ... When Moondog examined his own underpinnings, he saw that they did not provide satisfying answers.") & chapter 5 ("...the Viking dress that became his trademark did not evolve until the mid-1960s... The Viking's emergence ... was a splendid metamorphosis: in dress, from drab squares to color and costume; in philosophy, from cause consciousness to poetic myth; in music, from the percussive and the primitive to canonic form and sound saga."

- Comment: The 1969 album is 5x expanded, the 1956 album is newly created.

5x expanded by Ffranc (talk). Self-nominated at 12:53, 3 March 2022 (UTC).[reply]

We should think about this one, especially the ALTs, for April 1. Daniel Case (talk) 06:03, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Nice work. The hooks are all pretty interesting, so it surprises me that the nomination has been sitting around for so long. ALT0 is the best one if a date other than April 1 is selected, while ALT2 is the shortest and ALT1 is the catchiest. Epicgenius (talk) 13:17, 15 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Promoter's comment to @Ffranc and Epicgenius: sorry, y'all, but we're running short on quirkies. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 20:10, 15 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Initial Comments

I am unfamiliar with the sourcing for images, so the image of the trimba prevents my approval on that part. Otherwise, this looks good. DadOfTheYear2022 (talk) 17:18, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
