Taylor is rarely without co-writers [in 1989]: only 'This Love' belongs to her alone...

'This Love' was reportedly the first song written for 1989, the only one on the album that was co-produced by the man who'd been her collaborator on her previous four albums, Nathan Chapman, and also the one song on 1989 she wrote solo.

Created Converted from a redirect by YOÜ AND I baby (talk). Nominated by Troubled.elias (talk) at 04:14, 9 May 2022 (UTC).
@Troubled.elias: The article is new enough, long enough, referenced, neutral and no copyvio obvious. AGF two offline sources. The hooks are sourced and interesting. However, I find the fact that Swift originally wrote this as a poem more interesting, but if you don't want that as a hook, I think ALT1 is more interesting than ALT0. The image here is free and the other one in the article is fair use. Waiting for QPQ. Corachow (talk) 13:42, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
- Hi @Corachow! Sorry, but I forgot about the QPQ exemption policy - this is my second DYK nomination, so may I ask if I'm still obligated to do a review despite initially putting "TBA"? Also, with regards to your hook suggestion, I'd be glad to take it to heart! Here's what I came up with; let me know if it is punchy enough:
- ALT2: ... that Taylor Swift (pictured) initially wrote "This Love" as a poem, turning it into a song once she came up with a melody? Source: Paúl, María Luisa (May 6, 2022). "Taylor Swift Releases 'This Love' in Next Move Toward Owning Her Catalogue". The Washington Post. ISSN 0190-8286. Archived from the original on May 6, 2022.

@Troubled.elias: You don't have to do a QPQ here, but please indicate your exemption next time. I'm approving the nomination, and prefer ALT2. Corachow (talk) 14:09, 13 May 2022 (UTC)
