King Star King

[edit]

  • ... that co-creator JJ Villard described the titular character of King Star King as "He-Man on drugs"?

  • Date and length OK, QPQ unnecessary for this editor. No disambig links (DYK toolbox flags one link but I double-checked them all manually). External links OK. Re Alt 1: I cannot find a citation for sponsorship by KFC, or for being released online as part of development contest. Please clarify this. Thank you. --Storye book (talk) 16:32, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
  • The WebCite snapshot is broken for some reason and the original link says that its "present[ed]" by KFC. I updated the article and the hook to better reflect this; in addition, I added two other citations about their partnership. (This comment was inserted by 23W on 26 May 2014)
  • Re original hook: the citation for "he-man on drugs" is not written on the page referenced. I am guessing that it is in the video about King Star King on that same referenced page, but when I attempted to play the video it was flagged as temporarily unavailable. Please make sure that your references support your hook-statements in writing, and that the references are placed clearly next to those statements in the article. --Storye book (talk) 16:40, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
  • It is indeed stated in the video instead of the text, but it seems WebCite doesn't support video embeds either. I wasn't sure whether to cite the YouTube video directly or not, as I've seen other citations where they direct readers to the embeded video somewhere (like I have it "See video under King Star King heading"). If not, I can correct this, but if it's too cumbersome or poses other issues then I think we can just stick with ALT1. – 23W (talk · contribs) 18:07, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Storye book I slightly tweaked the refs for the hook statement; it still refers to the same citations. – 23W (talk · contribs) 18:29, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Still good to go for Alt 1 only. --Storye book (talk) 18:46, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
