Lorde

[edit]

Lorde at the 2014 Sydney Laneway Festival

  • ... that through the song "Royals", Lorde (pictured), at age 16, became the second-youngest artist to ever chart at No. 1 on the Billboard charts?

Improved to Good Article status by (talk), Adabow (talk). Nominated by 3family6 (talk) at 14:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC).

  • The hook fact is not made out in the article because the "second-youngest" is not mentioned there, and the source mentions some even younger performers in 1963. I suggest ALT1 instead
  • ALT1 Looks good to me; the hook is interesting, reliably sourced, neutral and short enough, and QPQ is taken care of. Nominated in time, and since it is a GA, I trust that plagiarism issues have been taken care of. Good to go. Bentvfan54321 (talk) 19:26, 19 December 2014 (UTC)
