Naughty Boy

Created/expanded by Lil-unique1 (talk). Self nom at 00:55, 19 August 2012 (UTC)

  • Symbol possible vote.svg - There are two things wrong with this nomination, neither insurmountable but it does mean this cannot go up in its current form. Firstly, really cool fact which is sourced, but it's kind of lying by omission. It wasn't just deal or no deal. Why not have:
ALT 1 - ... that British record producer Shahid "Naughty Boy" Khan started his career by winning twice in one year, once for the Prince's Trust and then on Deal or No Deal?
It's a bit unwieldy but it seems silly to omit something crucial just to make an interesting hook.
Second problem, there's close paraphrasing in this article from the sources. Just looking at one source here shows a phrase lifted from the source. I'm not the best judge of this so it would be very good to get a second opinion, but even just changing a few phrases should fix the problem.

Agree with ALT-1, as for close pharaphrasing - erm I've quoted the text using quotation marks. The reference is part interview and part written prose. It was my understanding that if you quote something from another source this is allowed so long as quotation marks are used. This happens quite often in music-related articles. We have critical reception sections which directly quote reviews. As many of these are passed as good articles I didn't see this as an issue. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 19:50, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
Symbol confirmed.svg Sounds good to me! Like I said, not really a good paraphrasing person. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 21:04, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
