 * "QT was conceived to market an energy drink" -- wow! Talk about having your kid's life all planned out! EEng (talk) 01:21, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Haha, I guess I've been working on this so long that I didn't even notice that. Would it be clearer to say "the concept for pop singer QT" instead? hinnk (talk) 04:20, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, I think you should bring in the fact that QT isn't a person, but a persona taken on by a performer. EEng (talk) 21:39, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Here are some alternatives. I'd lean toward ALT2 simply because when I was looking at the reference, it's more about "Hey QT" than the QT persona. hinnk (talk) 06:52, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
 * ALT1 ... that the persona for pop singer QT came as a way to market an energy drink of the same name?
 * ALT2 ... that the debut single by pop singer QT was conceived to market an energy drink of the same name?


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Full review needed; struck original hook due to objections noted above. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:53, 9 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Symbol question.svg Article meets new and length criteria, within policy. Hooks are both short, though I think ALT2 is closer to the wording in the article itself, both are clearly supported by the citation.  Only thing I see missing is the QPQ. 1bandsaw (talk) 18:07, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
