Paparazzi (Girls' Generation song)[edit]
- ... that the music video for Girls' Generation's "Paparazzi" begins with the members prancing to Gene Kelly's "Singin' in the Rain"?

Improved to Good Article status by HĐ (talk). Nominated by Random86 (talk) at 07:54, 21 May 2016 (UTC).
New enough (GA), long enough, neutral, cited inline, and no copyvios detected (many sources in Japanese or not available online, so AGF on copyvios/close paraphrasing there). A few turns of phrase are "borrowed" from this source, such as "between shots of rabid photographers" and "The video plays as a stage performance". I'm quite surprised that got through a GA review. The close paraphrasing will have to be paraphrased further or attributed as quotes to that source. QPQ done. As per DYK rules, a cite is needed at the end of the sentence the hook is sourced from (even if the next cite appearing in that paragraph covers the material; silly, I know). Hook is short enough, interesting, and neutral. The verifiability should be evaluated after the cite is added. ~ RobTalk 19:38, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review, BU Rob13! The version of the article that got through the GA review had blatant close paraphrasing in that section [1]. I was surprised by it as well. I toned it down before nominating the article for DYK, but I suspected it might not be enough. I just re-wrote that part again and I think it's good now. I also added citations at the end of the hook sentence. Random86 (talk) 22:35, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
