 * Symbol question.svg The nominator will need to supply three QPQ reviews, since seven articles are nominated here, and only four freebies remain before quid pro quo DYK reviews must be supplied. Note that the hook is valid, since it's only 170 characters once all but the longest bolded article name are excluded from the count. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:45, 7 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Ahh. In that case I'm happy for the number of articles in this DYK to be reduced to 4. They can be any 4 really. Take your pick. 😊--Coin945 (talk) 08:36, 8 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Coin945, there's no time like the present to learn; we all started at some point. (You'll ultimately have to if you ever make another DYK submission.) I have unbolded two of the song links, for "The Schuyler Sisters" and "Say No to This", because they're borderline as regards length (though one will ultimately have to be removed from the hook because it will otherwise be too long), which leaves five songs. If you want to reduce the number of articles by one more, you'll have to choose which one to omit yourself. Alternatively, you can try your first DYK review: take a look at the reviewing guide, and also at the DYK rules; if something in the rules isn't clear, you can always check for more detailed explanations, but that probably won't be necessary.

 * I removed two of the articles (the two you said were borderline length), and completed a DYK review as a QPQ for the third article. :)--Coin945 (talk) 02:54, 9 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Full review needed now that QPQ has been completed; striking original hook. BlueMoonset (talk) 00:52, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol possible vote.svg By far and large, these nominations are acceptable. QPQ is now done, the articles are sourced, well written and the hook is acceptable (can't really do many exciting things when you got five songs of the same musical in there). Sources are fine. I do have a number of concerns though:
 * Wait for It (song) seems to have close paraphrasing in the first paragraph of the background section. Please tackle that;
 * There are completely uncited paragraphs in Alexander Hamilton (song) and Wait for It (song);
 * The prose of all of the articles seem to rely too heavily upon quoted material. Please consider paraphrasing some of it.
 * Such is my review of this five-part DYK. —♦♦ AMBER  (ЯʘCK)  11:51, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I rewrote the first paragraph in my own words.
 * I removed the unsourced paragraph from Alexander Hamilton. Wait For It doesn't have any unsourced paragraphs so I am confused by this.
 * I do not think this is a deal-breaking issue, and is merely a case of "preferred not required".--Coin945 (talk) 14:07, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Thanks for addressing the first concern, I did small additional edits to address what was left in terms of the second issue, and I take your point as stated in your third bullet point. All in all: this is good to go. —♦♦ AMBER  (ЯʘCK)  18:42, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
