MFi Program
- ... that in order to display Apple Inc.'s Made for iPod badge, suppliers must agree to be bound to Apple's Supplier Responsibility Code?
- Comment: I'd like comments on sourcing for the hook, and whether or not a "TUAW claims..." needs to be added? Alternate hooks are easy and still punchy, if need be.

Source does not support the hook. The source speculates on the possibility of such a requirement.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 02:33, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
- Right, so if we add the text as in the comment, is it then good to go? (continued below)
- The hook would still not be accurate. You need to propose and ALT hook.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 18:34, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
- That's what the comment did, propose an alternate hook. IE, "...according to a report in TUAW, in in order to join Apple Inc.'s MFi Program, suppliers must agree to be bound to Apple's Supplier Responsibility Code?"
- The hook would still not be accurate. You need to propose and ALT hook.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 18:34, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

- Why is the unofficial apple weblog (TUAW) a WP:RS.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 02:33, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

- 16px Needs a full review, including on sourcing and hook issues mentioned above. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:57, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
- Please formalize the Alt hook in standard format. See the rest of the nomination page to learn the format.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 00:41, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
- ALT1: ... that according to a report in TUAW, in order to join Apple Inc.'s MFi Program, suppliers must agree to be bound to Apple's Supplier Responsibility Code? —BlueMoonset (talk) 02:05, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
I believe that "According to our source at the event, Apple intends to make compliance with its supplier code of conduct a condition of MFi licensing." from the source supports this hook. Thus, I feel that ALT1 now passes.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 04:19, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
