... that prior to embarking on a music career during the pandemic, the DJ Sim0ne placed fifth on the eleventh series of Britain's Next Top Model in 2017? Source: https://theface.com/music/dua-lipa-illusion-review-playlist-ken-carson-simone
- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Killing of David Ben Avraham
- Comment: I cleared out a bunch of BLP violations for this just over a week ago, and then 5x'd from that this afternoon. I have not managed to 5x this from the 'bad' version, and I don't think I'll be able to get to 5x (it's currently a little over 4x), so I humbly request IAR approval (and if not, this is at GA anyway, so I'll just bring it back later).

5x expanded by Launchballer (talk).

Number of QPQs required: 1. Nominator has 219 past nominations.

Post-promotion hook changes will be logged on the talk page; consider watching the nomination until the hook appears on the Main Page.

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: DYK tool was reading earlier versions of the article and not showing 5k. WP:5X clearly specifies the last version of the page before expansion, which occurred a week after the removal of the WP:BLP-violating material, so I think we're good on that front. The article cites ellesse-en for some of the hook, but you have The Face here (which also supports it). Personally, I feel like The Face may be more reliable than a commercial clothing store that featured her as a model. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 19:23, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A few more referencing comments: Could not get a DOB on her Instagram post (WP:ABOUTSELF allows this, but I'm only seeing 'late 20s' at the source); the Danny Lomas podcast could benefit from {{cite podcast}} (the minutes, for example; one shouldn't need to review a 57 minute podcast); Bristol Post reference is underformatted; not sure about the reliability of Planet Woo. These aren't part of the DYK nom per se; please think of them as pre-GAR comments. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 19:31, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Replaced the Ellesse-en source with The Face. If you scroll down on Instagram you should see her comment "gentle reminder my birthday is this saturday". The podcast should have a button saying "Transcript", which is what I used. Planet Woo is a media brand belonging to ITV, although I've just read on a press release that "the team behind VICE, i-D, Boiler Room and LADbible" founded it and WP:VICE has them in yellow. I'm not using it for anything controversial though, just an interview and attributed opinion.--Laun chba ller 08:43, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, looks up to snuff for DYK! — Chris Woodrich (talk) 11:56, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well-written

Early life and Britain's Next Top Model

"she walked out of" > quit
"on the grounds that Manchester" > because it
"work available down there" > work available
"from her agency" > from Murphy's agency
"lots of jobs" > many jobs
"before deciding she could not be bothered" > but did not want
"only for the producers to email her back" > only doing so after the show's producers emailed her
"after which she found it easier to obtain work." > remove

I believe I've completed all of these.--Laun chba ller 04:41, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Music and presenting

"the pandemic" > the COVID-19 pandemic
"After returning to Scotland" > the second half of this sentence has nothing to do with the first, break them up

Split, although it feels recursive mentioning Scotland twice in quick succession.--Laun chba ller 04:41, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"During the pandemic, modelling work dried up, and Murphy realised that she wanted to make music, so spent lockdown teaching herself." > After modelling work became harder to find during the pandemic, Murphy spent the lockdown teaching herself to make music.
"In 2023, she released" > In 2023, Murphy released
"a further track" > another track
"preferring to take punters" > I can't find a definition for "punters" anywhere that fits this context, perhaps a different word would be better

Changed to "ravers".--Laun chba ller 04:41, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"nail pop up" > perhaps explain what this is

Pop up nail salon.--Laun chba ller 04:41, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"annotated with artwork" > decorated with artwork

All done.--Laun chba ller 04:41, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Personal life and artistry

"after a long dating pause after dating people in the modelling industry" find a way to get rid of this double "after"

Reworded.--Laun chba ller 04:41, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"[sic]." > which part needs a sic?

Capitalisation of "Sim0ne" and the lack of oxford comma.--Laun chba ller 04:41, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Verifiable

A ton of sources are missing authors and dates. Go through all of them and see which ones can be input.

I believe I've added all of them that have them.--Laun chba ller 04:41, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Spot check

1: Maybe I'm missing it but I don't see where states her birthday is 29 July

If you scroll down the comments you should see one from Simone saying "gentle reminder my birthday is this saturday".--Laun chba ller 04:41, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

4: Missing author and date
3: Missing date
29: missing date
27: missing author
