Hi Sims2aholic8, review follows: article passed as GA on 22 March; article is well written and cited inline throughout; sources look reliable for the subject and I found no overly close paraphrasing in a spotcheck of the ones I can access; image is appropriately and freely licensed; hooks are both interesting. I note that you use "first black artist" in the hook which is backed up by the source's "first black singer", but the article only states "first black solo artist". That'll need to be consistent. ALT1 is fine and checks out. A QPQ has been carried out - Dumelow (talk) 07:41, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks Dumelow, I've now made the necessary alignment change in the article to match ALT0. Sims2aholic8 (talk) 08:23, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
