Very interesting article and hook. Article and hook looks good, although it took me a second to understand the hook. How about ALT8?
"... that Akihiko Kondo "married" the fictional character Hatsune Miku (logo pictured)?"

Either way it looks good. Just waiting on a QPQ. — Panamitsu (talk) 10:23, 13 April 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Panamitsu: QPQ provided. While ALT8 and ALT0 are very similar, I think ALT0 gives more emphasis to the fact that Hatsune Miku is a fictional character, so would prefer it if possible. Skyshifter talk 21:06, 16 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Approved, thanks.
