- Hi, Template:U. I'll begin reviewing this nomination below: Lua error: expandTemplate: template "y" does not exist.
- Thank you for your comments. I have addressed the concerns about the use of quotes, and I prefer your proposal (i.e. ALT2) as it is much more appropriate for the front page. I think that I actually had added in that detail about the dry-cleaning after putting together this DYK so I had struggled with making an interesting hook with the article that I had at that time, but I would be more than happy to have ALT2 be used for the main page.

- Makes sense – I'm satisfied with the hook then. I still think that the number of quotes in the article is distracting. Addressing these would resolve that:
- – Rhinopias (talk) 00:19, 27 October 2017 (UTC)
- "She makes our movie sets more vibrant with her exotic electricity." – maybe something like "Shyamalan praised her designs and described her as 'the funk diva', recognizing the energetic presence her personality brings to his sets."?
- "favorite part of transforming rooms on Trading Spaces is coming up with a theme and then accessioning the rooms"
- "I'd rather not even talk about that." – vague, but the "another homeowner nightmare" is appropriate
