A fact from Ai Uta appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 29 September 2024 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Japanese girls found the song "Ai Uta" by the band Greeeen to be a perfect love song for the autumn, according to a 2007 Oricon survey?

The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Other problems: - Both ALTs seems promotional and may need reworking for grammar.
QPQ: None required.
Overall: Wow! "Ai Uta" is such a classic hit, so it's nice seeing an article for it. Article was nominated for DYK within the first 7 days of creation. It has over 1,500 words in prose. Citations are properly sourced. Earig picked up an unlikely copyright violation of 2.9%. Nominator has less than 5 nominations, so a QPQ is not needed at this time. Some suggestions outside of DYK nomination is to follow MOS:JAPAN#Titles of media, as I see some stylized capitalization (such as Greeeen's name). The ALT looks like it can be worked into something interesting, but the way it's currently worded feels a bit promotional. How about:
ALT0a: ... that, in a 2007 survey done by Oricon, Japanese girls found the song "Ai Uta" by the band Greeeen to be a perfect love song for the autumn?"
@Lullabying: Oh I reply to your message on my talk page. I thought as it was easy there but, Yes! I address the issue above, and change the Greeeeen's name to match MOS and use your suggested hook as I think they are better the mine.

Thank you! Good to go. It's OK if you reply on your talk page, but in the future please make sure to reply to the nomination instead, as the message on the talk page was meant as a notification! lullabying (talk) 05:57, 5 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
