Jason Dy[edit]

(

)

~~... that growing up in a broken family, Jason Dy was often hired by men to serenade their loved ones?~~

ALT1 ... that Jason Dy and his The Voice of the Philippines coach Sarah Geronimo both won the singing competition on the same day, March 1?

Not sure "broken family" is something we'd want to say in this day and age. EEng (talk) 06:25, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

Am I too old-fashioned? XD Well, I just thought that being an instrument for people being together despite his background is interesting. Not all people who have the same background as him are able to serenade non-relatives/friends anyway. If it doesn't work out, there's still the second alt. :) 001Jrm (talk) 06:06, 4 March 2015 (UTC)

New enough, long enough, adequately referenced, neutrally written, no close paraphrasing seen. I think the original hook is catchier, although I would delete the broken family part and write it this way:
ALT2: ... that Filipino singer Jason Dy was often hired by men to serenade their loved ones?
If you decide to use ALT2, however, it must be cited in the article right after the sentence in which it appears. The information in the chart also needs to be cited. ALT1 is verified and cited inline. I tweaked ALT1 to spell out which singing competition it was. QPQ done. Yoninah (talk) 11:34, 4 March 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for reviewing. Alt2 is already cited inline after the mention of the hook in the article (it is found right before the chart), but I'm ok with either alts. Your choice. The info in the chart is also already fully sourced. :) 001Jrm (talk) 05:25, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for sourcing the chart. The first ALT was misnumbered; therefore my comment didn't make sense. I renumbered the alts. I also added an inline cite to the article to verify ALT2. Now both ALT1 and ALT2 are verified and cited inline. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 18:14, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
