• DrKay how is Queen Victoria? SandyGeorgia (Talk) 20:44, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
• UEFA Euro 1976 final is 2008; maybe Amakuru will have a look ? SandyGeorgia (Talk) 20:44, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

  @SandyGeorgia: yes, happy to go through it. At first glance it looks fine, but would need to check tone and sourcing a bit just to make sure. Cheers  — Amakuru (talk) 08:14, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

Deja Vu (Olivia Rodrigo song)

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)

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? Wehwalt (talk) 01:16, 5 August 2023 (UTC)

Just leave it here. Wehwalt (talk) 01:17, 5 August 2023 (UTC)

Here's the blurb.--NØ 06:00, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
