  • While I think the first hook is the best option here, it's a bit complicated or hard to read. It might work better if the mention of "Himuko" is moved closer to the start of the article because I think readers unfamiliar with Nogizaka46 or Japanese idols in general may find that angle more interesting. In addition, I think an alternative hook about the show being uploaded for free on YouTube and that being considered "unusual" by Japanese standards may be worth proposing as another alternate hook.

    • @Narutolovehinata5: Thanks for the feedback. I agree that the cross-dressing angle is more interesting and have reworded as you suggested. Also added the second alternative, although I certainly would much prefer the main one. PetéWarrior (talk) 10:10, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
  • Article meets DYK requirements, no close paraphrasing found. No QPQ needed for a nominator with less than five nominations. I'm not really a fan of ALT1 due to possible nichness concerns and as such I have struck it. I'm a bit torn between ALT0 and ALT2: as I have an interest in Japanese pop culture, I'm not sure if I'm the best person to give an objective opinion on if either is interesting to a broad audience, so I'd like to ask for a second opinion from someone more unfamiliar with the field.

  • Comment: ALT2 is easier to understand. It also opens up just enough questions for the reader to want to learn more: What exactly is this show "Nogizaka Under Construction"? Where can I find it on YouTube to check it out and find out more? ALT0 is super confusing and has too many things going on, too many other blue links to click, etc.. If you really want to keep ALT0, I think you have to let go of the stadium pic (which probably wouldn't have been chosen by the DYK gods anyway) – sorry but that's a photo of the outside of Meiji Jingu Stadium, not really an image that somehow encapsulates the TV show or Nogizaka46, and it's just one element too many with so many things to keep track of in the hook. Then address the "too many blue links" problem by getting rid of the wikilink for "cross-dressing" (a pretty general term) and possibly one additional one. Hope that helps.

  • Approved to proceed based on earlier DYK review by Narutolovehinata5 plus reworking of hooks. Let the DYK prep/promoter choose between ALT0 and ALT2. Cielquiparle (talk) 14:53, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
