A Very Trainor Christmas
- ... that a pregnant Meghan Trainor wore bows during promotion for her album A Very Trainor Christmas because she considered her child a present? Source: Euphoria (discussion about the pregnancy), NPR (Trainor describing her baby as a present), and People (about the bow)
- ALT1: ... that most of the work for Meghan Trainor's Christmas album was actually done in July and August, when the weather was hot? Source: NPR
- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Angela Merkel
- Comment: I think there's great potential for a Trainor picture to appear with the first hook but this is of course completely up to the promotor.

Hi, MaranoFan. Review as follows: article is new enough, long enough, well-sourced, neutral and plagiarism-free. Both of the hooks are interesting with preference for ALT1 because "work" is a bit vague (like, is it promotion or recording or writing or release or something else?). I'm having trouble locating "she considered her child a present". Could you clarify for me? Thanks. QPQ has been done. Pamzeis (talk) 07:24, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks Pamzeis, hopefully you're enjoying this article :) That part of the hook pertains to the description of "My Kind of Present" in the Composition section; she describes the subject as her "kind of present" and told NPR: "It's, like, my song to my baby. When I perform it live, I do a dance where I tap my belly and I'm like, (singing) you're my kind of present. And it's so cute because I'm so excited for my baby." I don't share your concerns about ALT1 since I'm pretty sure "work" encompasses all of the things you've mentioned, but as long as we both like the first hook it's all good.--NØ 07:32, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
- Ohhhh, ok, I completely missed that, sorry. I've had another look at the article, and I can't seem to verify the fact that she wore bows because of the song/its subject, only that she wore them in the promotional material. Am I just missing that? Thanks. Pamzeis (talk) 08:06, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- ALT2: ... that a pregnant Meghan Trainor, who considered her child a present, wore bows during promotion for her album A Very Trainor Christmas?

- @BorgQueen and Bruxton: Anything else required here? (sorry for the random ping)--NØ 15:12, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
- @MaranoFan: I see that we are settled on ALT2 and I will stick with you to promote the hook. But right now it is not easy to find the hook facts. Can you put the hook in the article so that it is easy for a promotor and administrator to verify? Bruxton (talk) 22:16, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Bruxton, I have made some edits to the article per your suggestion. The baby being considered a present can be verified at the NPR link above, and Today seems to state Trainor wearing bows while promoting the album during her pregnancy more explicitly. Hope that solves it. Cheers, NØ 19:50, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
