Qabaniso Malewezi
[edit]- ... that Q wrote "Wikipedia"? he performed a selection of poems from his latest “People” album which is already on sale online. Among other pieces, he performed “Wikipedia”. Nyasa Showbiz
- ALT1:... that ...? Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)
Created by Iselilja (talk) and Sam Sailor (talk). Nominated by Iselilja (talk) at 23:58, 7 May 2018 (UTC).
- Long enough (just short of 1500 characters - I'll take it), new enough, no obvious copyvios, and hook has an inline citation. I quite enjoyed the hook - it was the first one to catch my attention while scanning through the list of noms needing to be reviewed. I fixed the formatting of the hook so that the title appears in bold. -- kewlgrapes (talk, contribs) 16:42, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
I did some minor copyedits to the article and it now stands at 1515 characters. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that the second to last statement (about him appearing on several major television shows) has no source. Iselilja, could you try to find sources for that statement? I'm a little iffy about whether or not he meets notability guidelines, but sources for that statement would help a ton. -- kewlgrapes (talk, contribs) 16:51, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
- Also, I removed the trailing ellipses from the hook as they are not needed. -- kewlgrapes (talk, contribs) 20:12, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
It has been over a month without a response to this review. Iselilja, we really need to hear from you if you wish to pursue this nomination. Many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:11, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
In Iselilja's absence, I have worked further on the article, and added more citations. Please revisit and review, kewlgrapes and BlueMoonset. Sam Sailor 18:35, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
The article looks very good now. Thanks for your contribution, Sam Sailor. I noticed the hidden note about the poem being so long that it should be in italics, but my understanding is that a poetry collection is in italics, while a poem title is in quotes, so I tweaked it in the article and hook. Here is a full review: New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. Hook ref verified and cited inline. Since a QPQ is needed for this nomination, I'll donate one of mine: Template:Did you know nominations/Volker David Kirchner. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 22:28, 23 June 2018 (UTC)
