 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg I'm opening this up for a new review. The review should be more specific and it doesn't seem like all criteria was checked. SL93 (talk) 03:21, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
 * I said it meets the requirements. If you want a point by point relisting of requirements I guess I can create a template for that. Symbol confirmed.svg.©Geni (talk) 15:11, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
 * You could use DYK checklist. FallingGravity 16:31, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
 * ©Geni, DYK reviewers are expected to go into additional detail. As it says at WT:DYK: Please begin with one of the 5 review symbols that appear at the top of the edit screen, and then indicate all aspects of the article that you have reviewed; your comment should look something like the following, after which is gives an example of what we're looking for. There's also further information in the reviewing guide linked to there. You don't need to use a checklist, but noting that you've checked for article length/expansion/GA, age, neutrality, sourcing, hook length and neutrality and sourcing, close paraphrasing/copyvio, QPQ, etc., is very helpful to the person who eventually comes along to promote this to prep. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:05, 31 March 2017 (UTC)

 * ALT 1: ... that President Donald Trump criticized the music video for Snoop Dogg's remix of "Lavender" because of a scene in which Snoop fires a flag gun at a clown parody version of Trump?
 * ALT 2: ... that Snoop Dogg's video for his remix of "Lavender" was inspired by the shooting of Philando Castile?
 * I'm adding these alternate hooks. FallingGravity 06:57, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
 * The second one fails on the technicality that that the relevant sentence doesn't has a citation at the end (and I'd say that "inspired" by the shooting is going a bit far. Influenced perhaps). For the first its a pass but I'd suggest keeping any description of Trump's tweet as short and generic as possible. So yes its a bit harsh but I'm rejecting them.©Geni (talk) 16:15, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
