1989 (Taylor's Version)

Converted from a redirect by Pamzeis (talk). Self-nominated at 06:47, 10 August 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/1989 (Taylor's Version); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

  • I'll take this review! The article itself looks quite good, and meets the character count requirement. However, the person who authored the content copied from Fearless would also have to be credited, I imagine. Also, the TheWrap source seems to say fans anticipated 1989 being the next re-recording because of "I Know Places" being performed on the Eras Tour. The date thing seems to be the author's own interpretation so the hook needs some tweaking.--NØ 07:42, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
    • ALT1: ... that Taylor Swift described 1989 (Taylor's Version) as her favorite re-recording because the five From the Vault tracks featured on it were "so insane" she could not "believe they were ever left behind"?Source: [2]
This could work too if added to the article. Regards.--NØ 08:12, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
Eh, proposed hook has been removed from the article, and I'm iffy on the alts. They're nothing out of the ordinary. (It's not the first time one of Swift's songs has featured on a movie soundtrack, and I presume every artists wants to release all of their songs but can't due to certain constraints.) Swift hooks generally have a reputation (pun unintended) for not doing really well at DYK, so I don't really want to put something on the MP unless it really is very interesting. I'll leave this here for a few more days to see if we can come up with something; otherwise, I'll withdraw this. Pamzeis (talk) 08:00, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

Also, none of the content that I copied from Fearless (Taylor's Version) remains in the article anymore, so I feel like credit would not be necessary for that. Pamzeis (talk) 08:10, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

I've struck ALT0 and ALT1, respectively, due to being inaccurate and not being included in the article. ALT2 is technically okay so I can approve that for now. Of course, new hooks can still be proposed until it is promoted to a prep set and I'd be happy to take a look if pinged.--NØ 16:24, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
OK, it's been a while since this was approved, but I think there are a few better alternatives now that more info has become available:
I feel like they're more interesting than the proposed hook ATM. Thanks. Pamzeis (talk) 00:49, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
Both facts are nicely sourced and present in the article. I had already verified the nomination's eligibility during the previous go so no problems on that front. Good to go! I will indicate my preference for ALT3.--NØ 00:54, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
