• Both articles were moved from mainspace on 12/9 and are long enough. Both are sufficiently cited for DYK standards, although Poppy O'Toole would not pass WP:GA in this regard. Its WP:LEAD would need to either be fully cited or fully uncited. However both have citations in every paragraph. There are no pictures to assess. Both pass copyvio.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 02:02, 10 December 2025 (UTC)

Fixed birthdate.--Launchballer 02:07, 10 December 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing the ref. Remember either all facts in the LEAD are either all cited directly inline in the LEAD or all cited in the main body that they summarize. One or the other.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 02:23, 10 December 2025 (UTC)

• How was she a chef for someone who died over 80 years before she was born.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 02:02, 10 December 2025 (UTC)

Different JPMorgan.--Launchballer 02:07, 10 December 2025 (UTC)

Thx for fixing the link.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 02:15, 10 December 2025 (UTC)

• Both articles are presented in an encyclopedic tone.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 02:12, 10 December 2025 (UTC)
• I don't feel the sources support "viral". It might even be hard to claim "trending". All I see was a controversy. It is not clear to me what you are claiming went viral. this is not a viral post.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 03:04, 10 December 2025 (UTC)

I swapped out those sources a lot; the "trending" bit was in (archive.ph), which I've just readded. As I understand it, 'viral' and 'trending' are interchangeable.--Launchballer 03:17, 10 December 2025 (UTC)

My understanding of viral is something that is getting a lot of views, while trending is something that is getting a lot of mentions, which are often highly correlated, but not always. For example, Sydney Sweeney is often a trending topic of late. Whereas her recent dress and her good jeans posts last year were likely viral.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 03:28, 11 December 2025 (UTC)

I'll take your word for it. (Might have a go at bringing Sweeney to GA at some point, there's got to be thousands of VPH at WP:DYKSTATS in her.) ALT0a: ... that the Young MasterChef judge Poppy O'Toole once accidentally made an archaic term for a person's vulva trend online?--Launchballer 03:43, 11 December 2025 (UTC)

• I can support ALT1 as interesting and properly presented and cited.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 03:15, 10 December 2025 (UTC)
• QPQs done.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 03:22, 10 December 2025 (UTC)
• I could pass ALT1 now or we could further discuss the other hook.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 03:22, 10 December 2025 (UTC)
• How about ALT0b: ... that Young MasterChef judge Poppy O'Toole accidentally made an archaic term for the vulva trend online?-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 16:18, 11 December 2025 (UTC)

ALT0b isn't quite accurate because quims are a subset of vulvas (humans aren't the only ones with them). ALT0c: ... that Young MasterChef judge Poppy O'Toole accidentally made an archaic term for a person's vulva trend online?--Launchballer 16:36, 11 December 2025 (UTC)

Is there a link to show what you mean.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 18:18, 11 December 2025 (UTC)

On second thought. I still think person is an extraneous word. Wiktionary makes no claim that quim is only a human term, which I think is your point. Thoughts? Debating on whether vulva should be linked.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 06:39, 12 December 2025 (UTC)

Just googled, and there seems to be two results for ""poppy o'toole" "woman's genitals"" versus five for ""poppy o'toole" "female genitals"". Alright, ALT0b it is, though perhaps 'a' instead of 'the'. If I had my way, there would be a near-total ban on unbolded links because they distract from the articles we want readers to look at.--Launchballer 05:18, 13 December 2025 (UTC)

• Although ALT1 passes, ALT0b is preferred and I leave it to the promoter to decide if vulva should be linked. Nominator prefers that it not be.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 05:57, 13 December 2025 (UTC)

@TonyTheTiger: Any chance you could approve the image?--Launchballer 09:02, 20 December 2025 (UTC)

• Image is PD and suitable for the main page.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 18:32, 20 December 2025 (UTC)
