The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as
this nomination's talk page,
the article's talk page or
Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
First comment on a DYK nomination. Anyway, I mostly support this nomination, but I have a few comments/questions, which may be taken with some grains of salt:
I think "Japanese pop" should be entirely linked to
J-pop, since I imagine that people expect "pop" to link to
pop music.
The text "idol group μ's" should probably be altered as there are two adjacent links to be part of the same text (see
MOS:SEAOFBLUE).
Is there a better way to quickly write "music video in anime format"? Aside from the aforementioned sea of blue problem,
anime music video is a term with a different meaning in anime fandom jargon.
Article-wise, the song sample may need to be trimmed per
WP:SAMPLE, unless there's a good reason why it's above 30 seconds (though I imagine
SiIvaGunner may have already crossed that line).
And for the music sample, I had merely included the entire chorus, but I will shorten it to below 26 seconds, 10% of the length of the song.--十八03:11, 6 January 2021 (UTC)reply

Juhachi: Article was new enough and long enough at the time of the nomination. The hook facts are cited inline, and although cited to an offline source, are easily verifiable on any online source discussing the franchise. A QPQ has been done, and no close paraphrasing issues were found. My only concern is that ALT1 reads a little awkwardly and could be rephrased to be a little snappier: perhaps move the mention of SnowHala to the start of the hook? Otherwise a pretty harasho article and nomination.

About all I can do with the hook without it basically being the original one again is
I think the original hook is actually fine, if anything it should raise some interest since I presume "anime music video" is not something that most readers would find typical.

Okay, then we'll go with the original hook.--十八01:14, 11 January 2021 (UTC) On second thought, considering the original objections to the first hook, I'll give another alternative of it:reply
Hello! Today, I made an edit referring to the use of the song by the Siivagunner YouTube channel. It was taken off (reasonable, the reversion is fair), but it’s still important to the legacy of the song. How would you go about making mention of Siivagunner while still making sure to cite correctly?

If it can't be cited with a
reliable third party source, I would not include it at all. If it's noteworthy enough, a third party source presumably would have mentioned it somewhere. But a cursory
Google search doesn't show anything beyond wikis, blogs, or other unreliable sources of the 40 or so links that turn up, which is not exactly something I would say gives credence to its importance for inclusion.--十八22:53, 6 March 2022 (UTC)reply
