  • ... that Brideside (showroom pictured) is a retailer that delegates the responsibility of coordinating bridesmaid dresses?

Created by TonyTheTiger (talk). Self-nominated at 13:50, 4 May 2017 (UTC).

  • New enough, long enough, hook sourced clearly enough, hook isn't the most exciting but it's the best one there could be I reckon. YE Pacific Hurricane 04:44, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
  • I don't think this hook is correct. The article seems to say that the bride can delegate the choice of bridesmaid dresses to the company, not that the company delegates the responsibility elsewhere. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:47, 20 May 2017 (UTC)
@TonyTheTiger: I don't think ALT1 will do. Can we leave this delegation bit out and have something different? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:32, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
  • ALT2 ... that Brideside (showroom pictured) has added maternity wear to its original bridalwear offering?
  • Reviewer needed for ALT2; struck the other hooks per Cwmhiraeth. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:39, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
  • 1740 characters long and nominated within time limit. No POV or plagiarism. Meets the citation requirements. Image is appropriately licensed. QPQ has been provided. The hook is interesting and sourced to a Bloomberg page. Good to Go. --Skr15081997 (talk) 11:32, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this, but I don't see what's interesting about ALT2. Plenty of companies expand their product lines. Perhaps if there was more detail as to why they went into maternity wear (are more brides showing up pregnant?) you could develop a hookier hook. Yoninah (talk) 20:08, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
  • ALT3 ... that Brideside (showroom pictured) was launched in Chicago because it was perceived as the largest bridal market in the United States?--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 21:00, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
  • Thank you, ALT3 works! Hook ref verified and cited inline. I tweaked the hook and identified the country. ALT3 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 21:27, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
@Yoninah: Did you intend to give this a tick? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:33, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
