• Saw this on the OCC website and thought, yep, this is definitely coming here. ALT0 isn't in the article (and probably shouldn't be added in wikivoice), but I recommend a WP:DYKAPRIL hook starting "that Olivia Rodrigo's stupid song...".--Launchballer 19:30, 15 June 2026 (UTC)

I mean April is pretty far away... Billboard's remark "Stupid Song' is anything but what its title implies" is in the article, so I think that makes the same point of ALT0 in an article-friendly way?--NØ 19:34, 15 June 2026 (UTC)

Billboard's remark is not in wikivoice.--Launchballer 19:39, 15 June 2026 (UTC)

Hmm, I added the closest thing possible to the article and another ALT hook here. No problem with the reviewer going for the ALTs and striking ALT0 if it still doesn't work.--NØ 20:38, 15 June 2026 (UTC)

• • ALT4: ... that Olivia Rodrigo's "Stupid Song" is not that stupid according to Billboard? Source: Billboard
  • ALT5: ... that a stupid song went number one in Australia, Ireland, and New Zealand? Source: AU, IR, NZ

Ok, just two more that just came to me. I'll stop here, lol.--NØ 02:38, 20 June 2026 (UTC)

On a more serious note, ALT2 comes off as the most intriguing and has no neutrality issues, so my preference is for that. We should be all set here when QPQ has been provided, no copyright violations were found, article is more than long enough, and was taken to DYK within a week of being moved from drafts to main space.

Thanks, SNUGGUMS. The QPQs have been provided. As you have requested on previous nominations, here (1, 2) are the WhatLinksHere pages that show they haven't been used before and the link to my last nomination page.--NØ 02:46, 22 June 2026 (UTC)

Single cover

Why is a scene from the music video being used as the single cover? It's listed as a single on Spotify because of the video. When you play it through the link, the video shows up, and if you switch to audio, the You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love cover appears. This is music video distribution across streaming platforms, as can also be seen on Apple Music and YouTube. It does not mean that the video thumbnail is the official single cover. @MaranoFan, @ALittleButterfly15, @Lk95, @Livelikemusic Rangel's Version (talk) 21:40, 19 June 2026 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure the image is now moved to prose, not in infobox's Cover parameter. ALittleButterfly15 (talk) 08:20, 20 June 2026 (UTC)
