    • Comment: Some of the hooks combine different parts of the article; alt3 mentions Brit, not Grammys, since the Brit was for the singers and the Grammys for albums. Alt0 may not be appropriate as "shiksa" is still quite offensive to some people (but this would be like using "queer", I think, which hooks have done). Alt4 deliberately eludes year for quirky factor. Other images could be used; Glee ones for Glee hooks, the Carlyle one for alt3 - plenty in the article and at commons but I think an image of Agron has been used for an image hook for a television episode she was in, so would have to check that. (An image was in a nom but didn't run) Agron's birthday is in April, so this might be in time for a special occasions hook.

  • Considering the GA status, the main things to review are the QPQ nom (done) and the hooks. I have mixed feelings about the main (slight BLP issues, but perhaps most hooky). ALT1 is not good (simplification and realistically not true, or confusing). The remaining hooks are IMHO trivial or boring, with the ALT4 (SWAT) being perhaps the best (most likely to hook the reader). Therefore I'd recommend main or ALT$, the promotor can choose their favorite (or any other, it's all subjective I guess). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:09, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
