War Machine (film)[edit]

  • ... that the online streaming media Netflix paid $60 million to buy distribution rights to the War Machine?

  • Comment - Not a review, but couldn't the hook be reworded thus: that the online streaming mediaNetflix paid $60 million to buy distribution rights to the War Machine? LavaBaron (talk) 19:28, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
Good to go technically. I moved the newly suggested hook to ALT1, and this is the hook I prefer. The other is acceptable, but verbose. References work, hook properly cited, Article works. Do we need a QPQ from this submitter? I get so confused with QPQs Fiddle Faddle 20:12, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
He needs a QPQ, Timtrent. You might want to change your to in the interim. I don't personally care, but you'll spare yourself a concert from DYK's Hallelujah Chorus if you change it. LavaBaron (talk) 21:12, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
  • No need. A tick says that the nomination is ready for promotion; superseding it with the ? icon (at the left, where it's easily seen) keeps this from showing up as being ready for promotion while the quid pro quo review is still outstanding. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:53, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
  • The QPQ thing is remarkably confusing for those of us who nominate rarely and review rarely. I'm quite grown up and have always failed to get my head around it. Fiddle Faddle 22:04, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
  • True. We're trying to make things less confusing; hopefully the RFC on the DYK Talk page will pass to enable that to happen. LavaBaron (talk) 22:18, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
I see the QPQ and marvel at the arcane system that obtains here. Fiddle Faddle 07:51, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
