Overall: Thank you for an excellent and well-researched article. This one ought to be assessed for GA. Meanwhile there are no problems. Earwig found a little bit of apparent copyvio, but I believe that this was on WP mirror sites only, and that there is no real copyvio here. Hooks: ALT0 and ALT1 are mentioned in the article, offline Billboard citation taken AGF. ALTs 2, 3 and 4 sources have a NY Times paywall (accepted AGF) and are mentioned in the text with citations. So the hooks are all OK. This nomination is good to go. Storye book (talk) 16:50, 16 January 2022 (UTC) ALT0 to T:DYK/P7 without image
