Created by Kingoflettuce (talk). Self-nominated at 09:15, 27 July 2021 (UTC).
The original nomination was missing sources, so I've selected them from the article myself: Main hook - [1], ALT1 - [2].
| 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 |
|---|
|
| QPQ: Done. |
Overall: 
The article makes it in just over the length requirement at 1521 characters, but I'm feeling alright about that given how new the establishment is so I'll pass it on that point - ideally in the future expansion could be done regarding reception, ambiance, etc. I actually like ALT1 more, I think it's catchier, but the primary hook could be made slightly more interesting by specifying "male diners are required to wear dinner jackets".
Speaking of expansion, I did find this article that talks more about ambiance and that dress code, and it mentions that as a corollary to their dress requirement, one could borrow their wardrobe from the restaurant's in-house Yves Saint Laurent collection. That fact would be an interesting addition to the primary hook, and in my opinion would make it more interesting than ALT1. Kingoflettuce, what do you think? I'll pass the nomination for now, but ping me if you decide to add this info to the article and modify the hook. /Tpdwkouaa (talk) 02:02, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
- Tpdwkouaa hey, thanks :) I came across that same info too, but thought that adding it in might make it read too much like an advertorial, plus it didn't feel that essential to include, although I do agree it's interesting. Never quite sure how or when to toe the line! Kingoflettuce (talk) 09:04, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
