Did you know... that Tachikawa Sumito made a hit cover in 1976 of a song that he first discovered when a housewife called into his radio show requesting to hear a version of it?

CurryTime7-24 this nomination was not properly transcluded to WP:DYKN, which is why it has gone unreviewed. As the nomination was made during the unreviewed backlog mode, you need to provide two QPQs within the next week. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 01:54, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'll take this one when I see two QPQs.--Launchballer 22:36, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"I'll take this one when I see two QPQs." Why did you say that? I'll donate the QPQ and review it now just to move it forward. --evrik(talk) 15:37, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Normally, when I do QPQs, I usually pick the oldest fully unreviewed nomination, as that's what WP:DYKRI encourages me to do ("It's a good idea to focus on reviewing older nominations that haven't received any attention yet.") On this occasion, with the QPQs overdue by more than a month, I wanted to be sure that CurryTime7-24 is in fact coming back, because if they aren't, then arguably a review for the next oldest would be more useful.--Launchballer 22:04, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If I donate a QPQ will you do the review? --evrik(talk) 22:37, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I will review this when I see two QPQs. That is what is required for this nom.--Launchballer 00:53, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
What is the "unreviewed backlog mode", and why are two QPQs required? --evrik(talk) 01:03, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
For nominations begun between 00:00, 8 March, and 23:59, 12 April 2024, articles were liable for an extra QPQ, as we had such a large backlog of unreviewed nominations that we were breaching the WP:PEIS limit.--Launchballer 01:16, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I donated two. Please link me to that discussion. --evrik(talk) 01:41, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Long enough, new enough. Can't read a word of Japanese, so AGF on the hooks and on Earwig - though I don't find ALT0 or ALT2 interesting (people are always going to say nice things at a funeral, and famous musicians are always going to become famous for something). Lead's a bit short, though not quite short enough to deserve {{lead too short}}, and no other maintenance templates deserved. Let's roll.--Launchballer 02:05, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
