General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: None required.

Overall: Article is well balanced, sourced and written from a neutral point of view. It is new enough, as it has been moved from draftspace within the last 7 days and the earwig tool found no signs of copyright violation or plagiarism. The hooks are interesting enough and the sources provided are reliable. Well done, Wolverine XI (talk to me) 10:19, 24 September 2024 (UTC)

personally, i feel that the original hook is suitable (because of the image) also bc i have less than 5 dyk noms, qpq doesn't really apply to me (yet) brachy08 (chat here lol) 10:41, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
If that's the case, then you should probably remove the second hook. Wolverine XI (talk to me) 10:46, 24 September 2024 (UTC)

@Brachy0008 and Wolverine XI:, I can't find where the sources verify that the choreography was inspired by Singin' in the Rain—while the Independent says "there is a mass “Singing in the Rain”-style choreographed dance sequence to “How to Get the Girl”", which isn't quite the same thing. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 21:39, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
tweaked. @AirshipJungleman29: brachy08 (chat here lol) 00:45, 21 October 2024 (UTC)
I don't think "styled from" makes sense. The best you can do at present is something like "that one reviewer said the choreography is like Singin' in the Rain". You don't have a quote from anyone who actually knows about what the inspirations were. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 00:54, 21 October 2024 (UTC)
tweaked again. how does it look? @AirshipJungleman29: brachy08 (chat here lol) 00:56, 21 October 2024 (UTC)
@AirshipJungleman29: Have your concerns been resolved? If so, is this ready to approve? Z1720 (talk) 23:13, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
...probably? I think a copyedit might be needed, as in ALT0b: ... that the choreography of How You Get the Girl during the 1989 World Tour resembled the 1952 musical Singin' in the Rain? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 13:38, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
I mean, that's really just the thought of one reviewer, so it should be attributed. But "Reviewer thinks choreography of one song is like one musical" doesn't make for a great hook. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 04:35, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
