How to be a Redhead

[edit]
  • ... that the creation of the website for How to be a Redhead was intended as "a positive, supportive environment for redheads that also provided beauty and fashion advice"?

Created by MichaelQSchmidt (talk). Nominated by Lugnuts (talk) at 15:27, 26 October 2014 (UTC).

  • The article is recent enough, the hook is interesting, and I don't see any paraphrasing issues, but is its reference reliable? Snuggums (talk / edits) 20:52, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
From what I can tell from the link, I think so. MichaelQSchmidt - thoughts? Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 07:53, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
Should be fine. All Business has been around since 1999,[1], is considered WP:RS by staff, oversight, editorial policy, and reputation and is considered quite reliable for what and how they they share information. The reference is an authored article by Greg Stern, one of their expert staffers. SNUGGUMS, Lugnuts... I believe we're quite fine with the source. Schmidt, Michael Q. 11:59, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
In that case, good to go Snuggums (talk / edits) 12:35, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
  • The hook is a little flat. How about:
  • ALT1: ... that two redheaded sisters are behind the How to be a Redhead website and the "Rock it Like a Redhead" beauty and fashion event targeted at redheads only?
  • ALT2: ... that the founders of the How to be a Redhead website also created the "Rock it Like a Redhead" beauty and fashion event targeted at redheads only? Yoninah (talk) 19:33, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
Alt1 sounds good to me. Thanks! Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 19:36, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
  • Thanks. Since I can't approve my own hook, new reviewer needed to sign off on ALT1. Yoninah (talk) 19:39, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
  • Not at all. Anyone except me can approve it! Yoninah (talk) 21:24, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
  • in that case, all good to go with ALT1 :) Snuggums (talk / edits) 22:03, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
