Overall: Wow! "Ai Uta" is such a classic hit, so it's nice seeing an article for it. Article was nominated for DYK within the first 7 days of creation. It has over 1,500 words in prose. Citations are properly sourced. Earig picked up an unlikely copyright violation of 2.9%. Nominator has less than 5 nominations, so a QPQ is not needed at this time. Some suggestions outside of DYK nomination is to follow MOS:JAPAN#Titles of media, as I see some stylized capitalization (such as Greeeen's name). The ALT looks like it can be worked into something interesting, but the way it's currently worded feels a bit promotional. How about:
- ALT0a: ... that, in a 2007 survey done by Oricon, Japanese girls found the song "Ai Uta" by the band Greeeen to be a perfect love song for the autumn?"
- ALT2: ... that the record label for the Japanese band Greeeen specifically marketed the song "Ai Uta" to teenagers? lullabying (talk) 09:29, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

- @Grnrchst: Apologies for the delay. QPQs are done. I also realized there's the possibility of including Lim Si-hyeon, the third member of the team; however, her article needed to be expanded to about 3,300 bytes to count as 5x expanded (someone else expanded it) and it is currently about 2,700: not sure if including it would somehow be possible. But besides that, two ALTs to re-word would include:
- ALT1 ... that Nam Su-hyeon and Jeon Hun-young winning the gold medal in the women's team archery event at the Olympics marked the 10th-straight time it was won by South Korea?
- ALT2 ... that when Nam Su-hyeon and Jeon Hun-young won gold at the 2024 Olympics in the women's team archery event, it marked the 10th-straight gold in the event for South Korea?

- Comment: I provided in-text attribution for the "daughter of our soil" part within the article; I'm not sure if I need to provide it within the hook as well. I provided two alternative hooks just in case, but Seychellois presidents describing Chang-Leng as important is hardly controversial.

- New enough and long enough. DYK hook fact checks out (and yes, I can read Portuguese... Thanks, Spanish!). Side comment to BaduFerreira: I think intangible rather than immaterial cultural heritage would be a better translation and in line with the term in English. We have Intangible cultural heritage as an article, but it does not line up one-to-one with ptwiki because they split the concept and UNESCO's list into separate pages (thus the separate Wikidata items). Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 03:54, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Sammi, Thank you for the review! I understand where you're coming from with this comment, but it seems to me that a Patrimônio Cultural Imaterial in Brazil is distinct from the UNESCO Intangible cultural heritage so linking to that article would be a little disingenuous. I'm hoping to find enough sources to get an article started for this concept to reduce future confusion between them, but I do appreciate your feedback. For that reason, I prefer to keep it as immaterial for the time being. Thank you again! BaduFerreira (talk) 05:14, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

- Hi BeanieFan11, review follows: both articles created 29 July; sources look to be reliable enough (AGF on the Korean-language ones); articles are both cited inline throughout and well written; I didn't spot any overly close paraphrasing form the English language sources, AGF on the Korean ones; QPQs are pending; hook fact is interesting and mentioned in both articles. My only query is if it is right to refer to their Japanese opponents as "defending champions", Japan won it the last time round but with a different team. Perhaps "ranked second in the world" is better? I am not familiar with the sport so maybe the terminology is OK as it is? There might also be a length issue, I think the paragraph common to both articles can only count towards the length of one. Can one article be expanded a bit to compensate? - Dumelow (talk) 11:48, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

Inclusion of non-English vernacular names is a touchy subject with proponents both ways, so I won't outright say the section should be trimmed down. However, each name should not be an individual paragraph, as that's very close to shouting, especially with the bolding.

- This is a neat fact, I'll jump on this. Article is new and long enough, and QPQ is met. Reuters is a reliable source and the primary proposed hook is obviously uncontroversial. The first hook is definitely the most direct and interesting, though personally I'd word it in a more attention-grabbing way such as "...that there is a Japanese girl group that performs North Korean pop songs?", stating it less as a fact and more as an anecdote. Not a dealbreaker if you prefer it as is though, the hook is perfectly acceptable. My main concern is with the article itself. While it's mostly presentable, seems copyright free, and has adequate sourcing, I'm concerned about the accuracy of its framing of the topic. It calls them a girl group and states they do musical performances of Korean pop. However, most sources (both utilized and other general google results) appear to call them a fan club, and I can only find any reference to them doing dance, not singing. The Reuters sources cited for them performing music has a lot of photos where they appear to be dancing without any apparent microphones, and again calls them a fan club who are dancing. This also seems more consistent with their undefined scope of membership. If they are not in fact a musical act, this is a major flaw in the article and the hook, which directly touches on them as a pop act. Do you have any sources that confirm they do any singing and are considered to be a girl group? LittleLazyLass (Talk | Contributions) 05:16, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
- @LittleLazyLass: The Liberty Times article describes them as a "girl group" (女子團體), but it literally means "girl group" and does not refer to a singing act, specifically. I've also come to realise that my understanding of the term "girl group" differs from the definition given on Wikipedia and in most English-language dictionaries. If a girl group was defined by their performances of or to music as I had understood it, then all the sources given would imply this descriptor. However, since that is not the definition of a girl group, I will adjust the article and propose new hooks tomorrow to remedy the issues you have highlighted. Thank you for your help thus far.

- Article is newly promoted to GA status and long enough. The article is written neutrally, well-sourced, presentable, and BLP-compliant. Earwig detects no plagiarism. The hooks are both cited and interesting, with ALT1 feeling hookier. QPQ has been done. Well done. gobonobo + c 01:26, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

- The 8 November 2016 source says: "Fantasy: Luxor. In its 17th year, Fantasy is the longest-running topless show in Vegas to remain in one location." This 6 March 2023 article says, "Currently the longest-running female revue production on the Las Vegas Strip, the show has been rolling through performances at the Luxor for more than 23 years". This 1 July 2024 article verifies that Fantasy is still performed at the Luxor. Cunard (talk) 21:34, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks - the second ref, added to the first, does it for me.2603:7000:2101:AA00:C90F:5F27:BE03:9B87 (talk) 22:54, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

Overall: While earwig indicates 31.0% similarity, a review of the similar language indicates it is largely names and the like. Proposing editor may wish to consider proposing the photo for consideration. 2603:7000:2101:AA00:34AF:AC34:37AD:2505 (talk) 10:35, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
