Overall: Great work by a gang of editors on two interesting articles. I corrected hook to reflect the subjective nature of source and the stylised lowercase title. No Swan So Fine (talk) 20:32, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

@No Swan So Fine: thank you for the review! Should I lowercase the page name? Yoninah (talk) 17:25, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

I'd love it, but I was very passionately informed that this was against our rules. No Swan So Fine (talk) 22:02, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

@No Swan So Fine: Wow, that's a pretty explicit note. So I'm uppercasing it in the hook and also where I see it lowercased in other articles. Thanks for your good work, Yoninah (talk) 22:08, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

@Yoninah: How would you feel about the hook being promoted without the image? SL93 (talk) 17:27, 10 January 2021 (UTC)

@SL93: Fine by me. Taylor Swift's name brings in enough clicks all by itself. Yoninah (talk) 17:42, 10 January 2021 (UTC)

@Yoninah: Okay. I plan to promote it when there is a newly empty prep area available...unless someone else promotes the hook first. SL93 (talk) 17:51, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
