::*I just looked over the article. While it is true that Colonel Sanders is a real-life person, the hook is written in a way that obscures that. A tweak of the hook wording would solve it. Alternately, the bolded link could be piped to say what it is (a dating sim). Thanks, [[User:Yoninah|Yoninah]] ([[User talk:Yoninah|talk]]) 21:37, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

I Love You Colonel Sanders!

  • Reviewed: Exempt, less than 5 DYKs in my life

Created/expanded by Akrabbim (talk). Self-nominated at 20:33, 4 February 2020 (UTC).

  • Symbol delete vote.svg Unless I'm missing something, this was last edited on 15 December 2019, and submitted to DYK on 4 February 2020‎, so it fails the newness criteria of WP:DYKRULES. -- RoySmith (talk) 03:56, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
Oh, no, wait. I was reviewing the wrong article. I was looking at Colonel Sanders, not I Love You Colonel Sanders!. -- RoySmith (talk) 03:58, 6 February 2020 (UTC)

Lua error: expandTemplate: template "y" does not exist.

  • Symbol question.svg This hook falls short of Rule C6. It is all plot. Please provide a new hook. Yoninah (talk) 21:34, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
  • I just looked over the article. While it is true that Colonel Sanders is a real-life person, the hook is written in a way that obscures that. A tweak of the hook wording would solve it. Alternately, the bolded link could be piped to say what it is (a dating sim). Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 21:37, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
Hmm, how about this? —Aᴋʀᴀʙʙıᴍ talk 21:48, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
  • OK, but what about removing the repetition?
  • ALT2: ... that the young, attractive, and date-able portrayal of Colonel Sanders in a parody dating sim is part of an effort by KFC to make the Colonel a "part of pop culture"? Yoninah (talk) 21:58, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
  • You could also turn around the wording in ALT0:
  • ALT0a: ... that in a 2019 parody dating sim commissioned by KFC, players attempt to win the love of the young, attractive Colonel Sanders? Yoninah (talk) 22:03, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
I don't see how ALT2 is an improvement over ALT1, but I'm fine with it if you think it's better. I think it's hookier than ALT0 and 0a. —Aᴋʀᴀʙʙıᴍ talk 22:07, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
