Afrique Victime
- ... that Mdou Moctar's Afrique Victime was also released on Nokia devices (specifically the Nokia 6120) to honor his former albums?

GA status confirmed, date is fine. Various GA-related quality aspects confirmed as meeting DYK standards. Still needs a QPQ review. Hook needs improvements; not Nokia devices, but a single device (the article states "In homage to his first albums, which he spread using Bluetooth, he released a collector's edition Nokia 6120 handset."). And while this is not a DYK concern, I think this part of the article should be expanded - how can one spread albums using Bluetooth? How does one include an album in a handset (the source states it was pre-loaded onto a classic handset, which is confusing - what exactly was that item)? If I was a GA reviewer I'd expect this to be addressed (expanded with clarifications in the text).

- The "spreading albums using Bluetooth" thing is already explained in the article Mdou Moctar, so I figured it's WP:Summary style to exclude that info from this article. But I agree that the article should be clearer, so tweaked. — Vigilant Cosmic Penguin 🐧 (talk | contribs) 16:12, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- Finished the hook request.

@Piotrus and TheNuggeteer: The first hook was a bit confusing to me. Perhaps something like:
- ... that Mdou Moctar's 2021 album Afrique Victime was distributed on pre-loaded Nokia 6120 classic cellphones?
