  • ... that while performing their song "Sing" on Top of the Pops, Scottish band Travis engaged in a pie fight? Source: "Travis stopping playing 'Sing' for the last 30 seconds to have a monumentally messy custard pie fight" ([1])
  • Reviewed: Exempt (first time nominating)
  • Comment: If possible, I'd like this hook to be featured on 28 May 2021, the 20th anniversary of the song's physical release in the UK.

  • checkY Article is a GA, nominated in time (became GA on 13 May, nominated same day), and article is within policy. Copyvio tool says there's a 8% chance of copyvio, but the things it's highlighted are all short quotes, which are perfectly acceptable, so no valid copyvio issues found
  • checkY Hook is short enough, in the article, interesting and well cited
  • checkY QPQ exempt, as the user has 0 previous DYK nominations
  • Overall, this nomination passes, congratulations. I will post a note on WT:DYK for it to run on 28 May (there is currently 1 space in the prep area for that day, so should be fine to run that day). Joseph2302 (talk) 16:00, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
