I have some sourcing concerns on this new enough and large enough expansion. I have to AGF on the Chinese-language sourcing.
- Can we say that "the IOC" praised it as "genius" when their TikTok account did?
- The Fox Sports Australia piece is similarly fluffy/listicle-y. The "genius trick" item was actually in SB Nation here, and we should replace Fox Sports Australia with the original source.

I'd like to see these issues addressed. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 20:15, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  - @Sammi Brie: I have made modifications as per the issues you stated: 1. updated the ALT1 hook to state that TikTok account mentioned it as such. 2. Updated the link by replacing Fox News with SB Nation. Let me know if its good to go now. Toadboy123 (talk) 03:50, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - Sammi Brie, this needs your attention. Schwede 66 03:49, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    - I just can't get over us putting a quote from the IOC's TikTok on the Main Page. Apologies to Schwede66—I had drafted a message, but I have had an intense last week-plus, and somehow it just slipped through the cracks. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 21:12, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      - How do you feel about ALT3, Sammi Brie? This way, it's clear that who says what and how. Schwede 66 03:26, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
        I'd be fine with the wording. I just dunno. I'll leave this up to a promoter. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 05:48, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I like the "original" more than the ALTs as I think they are a bit too sensational for wikipedia. The "strategy" is not really new. I think especially Kim Dong-sung is most-known for it. Well, actually, what bugs me the most is the term "rabbit strategy". I think the original or ALT2 are the best. --Christian140 (talk) 11:12, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
