Craig Baldwin with his collection of films

... that the movies Tribulation 99: Alien Anomalies Under America, Spectres of the Spectrum, and Mock Up on Mu were created out of found footage from the collection of Craig Baldwin (pictured)?

Comment: Tribulation 99: Alien Anomalies Under America and Spectres of the Spectrum are new. Mock Up on Mu is expanded. The picture is taken from Spectres of the Spectrum.

Two of these articles are new and are long enough, but Mock Up on Mu is an expansion. Unfortunately it is not long enough, having been expanded from 826 to 3482 characters, and will need to be over 4100 characters to qualify on length. The image is idiosyncratic and properly licensed and the hook facts are interesting and cited inline in each of the articles. The articles are neutral and I detected no copyright or close paraphrasing issues. For a three article hook you need three QPQ reviews. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:07, 17 November 2018 (UTC)

The nominator hasn't edited since last month, and has been unable to provide the requested two additional QPQs. I'd be willing to donate at least one if they do come back, but unless the hook and article issues are addressed soon, or the nominator returns soon, I'm marking this for closure.

I'm also happy to donate a QPQ if needed, and would propose a two article hook to remove the one that is not 5x expanded.

Note: Mock Up on Mu wouldn't have to be removed entirely from the original hook, it would just have to be unbolded, and its DYKmake credit removed. Is it helpful to retain it or not? BlueMoonset (talk) 19:33, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

I don't think we lose too much by only mentioning the two movies but do not have a strong opinion either way. Best, Mifter (talk) 03:12, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

I think out of respect for the nominator's wishes, we could stick to the original proposal, but with Mock Up on Mu unbolded. @BlueMoonset and Mifter: Would you be fine with this proposal, so that the nomination can move forward? In the interest of this moving forward, I'm donating Template:Did you know nominations/Slovak Three as a QPQ (I'm not sure if it counts since I wasn't the original reviewer, but merely one of those who gave a second opinion and later marked it for closure, so if this is disallowed, I'll provide another one).

Narutolovehinata5, I have no objections with using the original hook with Mock Up on Mu unbolded. I also think your donated QPQ will be fine, if for some reason its not, I'm also happy to done one. Best, Mifter Public (talk) 04:37, 14 December 2018 (UTC)

Since I suggested it, I think it makes sense. The DYKmake for Mock Up on Mu would need to be removed, of course. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:10, 15 December 2018 (UTC)

I've removed the DYK credit for Mock Up on Mu and unbolded it from the original hook. I also struck my ALT proposal. Best, Mifter (talk) 06:01, 19 December 2018 (UTC)

Reviewing the original hook (minus Mock Up on Mu),

- Length, Date, Cites, QPQ (one by nom, one by Narutolovehinata5), and Earwigs check. Image is a freely licensed screenshot from an independent film. Original hook approved. Best, Mifter (talk) 06:01, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
