  • Can we state that Mount Eerie is an album in the hook pls (prefer first hook). Also to note, the article was promoted to GA on 17th June, and certainly meets the GA criteria.Ceoil (talk) 20:01, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
  • Have touched up the first hook (distinct, individual characters). Earwig @ 34.2%, but mostly from quotes cited to The Quiteus. I followed the GA nom. GTG. Ceoil (talk) 21:41, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
  • @Ceoil: Thanks, one thing though. "voices" was changed to "vocal styles", that isn't exactly the case though. In the album, separate people are used for different characters, as well as different characters from Phil (e.g. Close Dark Voice). So while saying "vocal styles" is technically correct, it's a bit misleading. My original "voices" isn't great either, and a little misleading too sorry!. I've changed it to "people and vocal styles", let me know your thoughts! I also fixed the album released date erroneously being 2013. :) Mcguy15 (talk, contribs) 22:11, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
  • Also, here is the Pitchfork quote used to source the hook. "Each track serves as a piece in Mount Eerie's continuous, linear story, and many of Elvrum's friends assume roles as the primary cast of characters"
Am good with last update to hook.[3] Ceoil (talk) 22:14, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
