@Hawkeye7: Not a review, but that image doesn't meet WP:DYKIMG. I suggest cropping it.--Laun chba ller 17:21, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
@Hawkeye7: Nice article. It was nominated in time and meets the character count requirement. The hook is interesting given the singer's name. There is an excessive citations banner and the image issue highlighted by Launchballer above that need to be resolved.--N Ø 11:53, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
May I remind you that removing a tag without remedying the underlying issue does not count @Hawkeye7:. Per WP:CLUMP, if more than three references really are necessary, they should be bundled.--Laun chba ller 19:02, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
May I remind you that changing the referencing style of an article violates our MOS:RETAIN guideline and is blockable offence. Whereas Template:Clump seeks to enforce Wikipedia:Citation overkill which it is nothing more than an essay, with no community consensus. For this reason Template:Clump is not on the list of DYK dispute tags at Wikipedia:Template index/Disputes and therefore does not fall under WP:DYKTAG. Since it is neither a dispute tag nor has any authority, I am free to ignore what the template documentation it says and enforce our editing guideline by removing it.

MOS:RETAIN refers to varieties of English and does not mention references, though my concern has been resolved anyway. (There's surely no need for two {{DYK nompage links}} on this page?)--Laun chba ller 20:27, 19 September 2024 (UTC)

The Image looks fine to me, but created a second version. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 19:23, 19 September 2024 (UTC)

My problem with the original image is that it does not display well at {{main page image/DYK}}, though the original is significantly better. I'll let a prepbuilder make the decision. I think this is good to go, but pinging @MaranoFan: just in case.--Laun chba ller 20:27, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
