• Approved for orig hook (not alt), imo sufficiently interesting and alt gets a bit too verbose. Hello~ nice work on the article. GA around time of nom, long enough, no significant subjective problems with article, no copyvio, hook is well-worded and supported by RS. grapesurgeon (seefooddiet) (talk) 19:19, 17 May 2025 (UTC)

I've listed this article for peer review because I want to nominate this to FAC. Since the previous failed FAC mentioned the prose quality, I received help from WP:GOCE. I would appreciate to receive other feedbacks to improve this article.

Although K-pop is not my main era, it's so good to see that my native country idols are planned to be FA, thanks to nice contributors like you. I'm so proud of it! I just quickly chekced some probs, and I found that:

• I think Name section should be expanded more, or be integrated to other sections.
• In entire of History section, Kami no Tō: Tower of God is linked twice.
• Time is linked twice but in different section. I don't think the wikilink in Artistry section necessary. (But not in Impact section; I believe it's useful in there.)
• Go Live and Noeasy linked twice in Artistry section
• I didn't mention other duplicated links which is linked twice in different section, except Time. But you can download this script to detect DL and fix them if you think they're unnecessary :). Camilasdandelions (✉️) 14:24, 2 February 2026 (UTC)

Hi, @Shenaall: I will look for through the 'artistry' section and below. —LastJabberwocky (Rrarr) 21:18, 6 February 2026 (UTC)

• Stray Kids' music is inspired by hip-hop, dubstep, heavy metal, electroclash, and dance-pop. It has been described as "dark and experimental". Consider adding more sources and separatinf genres that are most commonly assigned to Stray Kids
• After the release of the album Go Live, the public and some entertainment media outlets began calling Stray Kids the pioneers of "mala taste music" (Korean: 마라맛 음악; RR: Maramat eumak), a name they adopted from the hot, spicy mala seasoning, and it became a rising music trend among K-pop boy groups. Consider adding a brief describtion of mala taste music. Is it associated with any music genres?
• During the showcase for Rock-Star During a showcase of Rock-Star EP or During a show in support of Rock-Star EP ?
  • Fixed
• stating in a 2023 interview during the Next Generation Leaders with Time ---> stating in a 2023 interview with Time
  • Fixed
• The first rwo paragraphs of 'artistry' have information that can be merged together ("dark and experimental" with expiremnal identity; mala taste related info
• Consider distilling song descriptions into "Stray Kids' music has elements of psychontrance, trap, etc
• Experimental music has been Stray Kids' identity since the beginning of their career, combining genres throughout their discography. -----> Experimental music and genre fusion have been the core elements of Stray Kids' music output since the beginning of their career
  • Fixed
• Their debut song, "District 9", is a hybrid genre that combines hip-hop, rock, and EDM with frenetic bass, sirens, EDM breaks, aggressive raps, and hip-hop dance moves. This one confuses me :). They combine hip-hop with hup-hop moves; EDM with EDM breaks?
  • Is this one okay or still confusing? @LastJabberwocky

• Stray Kids is a "self-producing" idol group whose members have been mostly involved in songwriting and composing, and have sometimes assisted in arranging, even before the official debut.

Olliefant

• "Name" is really short and go probably be absorbed into the first section of "History"
• Under "2019: Clé series and Woojin's departure" mention the country next to the city
• "Tower of God" is linked on the second mention not the first
• "fanmeeting Stay in Our Little House" -> "fanmeeting, Stay in Our Little House,"
• "Inspire Arena" -> "the Inspire Arena"
• Mention the locations of the Governor's Ball and the Rock in Rio festivels
• "awards at the 2023 and 2024 Hanteo Music Awards" -> "award at the Hanteo Music Awards in 2023 and 2024"
• Link "Hanteo Music Awards"
• "Disney animated film" -> "the Disney animated film"
• In "Philanthropy", since multiple currencies are mentioned, can the USD conversion be listed to prevent confusion?
• "first K-pop group to exceed five million pre-orders for its album 5-Star" so other groups got pre orders 5-Star?
• The tables under "Filmography" are missing captions (per MOS:DTAB) and should be sortable

That's what I found, ping me for any follow up questions Olliefant (she/her) 15:58, 16 February 2026 (UTC)
