... that Raychell's previous stage name Lay was meant to represent her belief that singing while lying down would heal listeners? Source: ROCK AND READ girls (in Japanese). Shinko Music Entertainment. May 25, 2019. p. 104.
Comment: Unfortunately I have no access to the source used in the article as the relevant passage was translated from the Japanese article, but the reference is there too and I am assuming good faith on its veracity. Inviting ZappaOMatic to expand the article and potentially suggest additional hooks as well.
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith
Interesting:
QPQ: Done.
Overall: Article was translated from Japanese on June 4, with proper attribution given on the talk page, and nominated for DYK one day later. Article meets requirements for length and sourcing, is neutral in tone, and no plagiarism was detcted. The hook is reasonably interesting to a broad audience, properly mentioned and cited inline, and I will AGF on the validity of the hook. QPQ requirement has been competed, and the nomination is approved. Flibirigit (talk) 18:32, 23 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
