Comment: This is only my third DYK, so I do not believe QPQ is required
Impressive article. Nominated well in time after being moved to mainspace and well-sourced. QPQ is seemingly not required so good to go. I prefer ALT0.--NØ 20:50, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Also changed the start of the lead to be consistent with the other Hoshino articles
"The J-pop and rock single was released by" → "The songs were released as the album's second single by" since the release belongs here and move genre to the sentence of the homage and composition
Done. Added the sentence "Categorized as J-pop and rock, the single features varied sound throughout its track listing" to the other paragraph
To make the first para four sentences, I would recommend adding a sentence about how Hoshino's writing style lacked deep thought and used lines he liked, as the background section mentions for both songs
Done. I've added this with a semicolon after "Both tracks were written by Hoshino", if you want it completely as its own sentence I can move it, but I thought this flowed well
The sentence about the single's pre-release previews should be swapped and use "first part" to refer to "Crazy Crazy" and second part for the other one, so you are not using their titles repetitively in this para
None of the first sentence in the third para is sourced; is this on page 2 of the source since I cannot get that to translate and if so, please add as a separate ref here?
There's an rp template so I don't think the source needs to be changed. The exact sentence is "J-WAVEの春のキャンペーンソングだったので、じゃあ、桜ソングを作ろうと思って" if that helps
"received positive reviews" → "was met with positive reviews"
Done
"singling out the jazz piano as particularly" → "seeing the jazz piano and thumping drums as particularly" but I don't see the crazy quote unless my translator is bad?
Done
"of the mainstream."" → "of the mainstream"." per MOS:QUOTE and re-invoke the ref since this is a direct quote
Done
"over the "dancing" instrumentation." → "over the dance instrumentation." since quoting is not needed for one word
Done
"not to dance to."" → not to dance to"." but the info here does not seem to be sourced, unless my translator is faulty?
The sentence is "腰で踊らずにはいられない" - I ran it through a translator myself now and it shows "I can't help but dance with my hips", but the reviewer never mentions themself in the text so that is the translator filling in blanks
On hold after this review went quickly and I congratulate you on the hard work already having brought this article to how good it currently is, even having taken on past suggestions already which is fabulous! --K. Peake 10:50, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@IanTEB: Well done on such a fantastic response through covering the vast majority of these points, despite some being harder than others! I have edited the adult contemporary part now for clarity since I understand it is not the same as the US version; only thing remaining now is to remove the publishers from the refs I mentioned since citing Mikiki is enough. --K.

✓Pass now, I commend your speed and newfound skills! --K. Peake 20:53, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Once again, thank you so much for the review! I'll make sure to return the favor with a review on one of the Kanye articles :) IanTEB (talk) 21:26, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
