[edit]

Hey, I don't think there is anything humorous enough about this article for it to ever get picked for its release day (April 1). I thought the release of the artist's sophomore album (September 8) would be a a good time to run this but it seems to be a rejected TFAP request. Can we run it sometime around September 8...? Not a single article about this artist has ever ran on the main page so this is extremely odd to me.--NØ 19:36, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I consider TFA/R first, since that is a request for community backing, and there was a popular music song that went through TFA/R. We can't run too many similar articles. And remember the language of WP:TFAP, "Articles for dates beyond then can be listed here, but please note that doing so does not count as a nomination and does not guarantee selection." But if you can do a blurb for the one you want, I'll stretch a point and move Victoria until later in the month. I need it today, though. Would that be OK?
