Hooks must not be likely to change, and that album's probably going to come out. (Probably.)--Laun chba ller 23:15, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it's released now @Launchballer so...

... that after being outed by a reporter, Billie Eilish became more open about her bisexuality, even including a song about lesbian sex on her third album?

Fine by me.--Laun chba ller 06:50, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@PSA, Prince of Erebor, Launchballer, Geni, Kusma, and Z1720: reopening this nom page per discussion at WT:DYK. I personally agree with the sentiment expressed there that including mention of Eilish's sexuality is not suitable for the main page, when she's explicitly said she doesn't accept the concept of outing. Suggest we go with Kusma's alt or something else. Full discussion to be copied below. — Amakuru (talk) 20:18, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Currently in prep 7. Hook doesn't appear to be neutral. If I'm reading the sources correctly Eilish is rejecting the term outing which the hook uses.©Geni (talk) 05:35, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My reading of the sources is that Eilish is objecting to actually being outed; if she had a problem with the term, she wouldn't have used it in the Instagram post mentioned in the Background section.--Laun chba ller 14:30, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

From what I read in the source [1], she said "i like boys and girls leave me alone about it please literally who cares." so I am not sure focussing on her sexuality (instead of on the song) is appropriate for the Main Page. —Kusma (talk) 14:46, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"... that Billie Eilish included a song about lesbian sex on her third album?"--Laun chba ller 14:58, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not very hooky but its really up to @User:PSA in terms of what they want to do.©Geni (talk) 08:48, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Launchballer @Kusma @Geni: ... that Billie Eilish included a song about lesbian sex on her third album after gradually becoming more public about her sapphism? PSA 🏕️🪐 (please make some noise...) 02:17, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I prefer Launchballer's version because it does not talk about Eilish's sexuality in the hook. —Kusma (talk) 05:52, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

From the gay times article "Eilish also criticised the notion that a person has to ‘come out’ as queer" I read that has Eilish rejecting the term.©Geni (talk) 08:48, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's more like "no one has to feel pressured to tell people theyre LGBT" to me. not necessarily a rejection of the concept PSA 🏕️🪐 (please make some noise...) 08:52, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well perhaps. In practice Z1720 aproved the hook some time ago so its all moot at this point.©Geni (talk) 19:33, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Stylization[edit]

@PookiWooki, please see this related discussion Talk:Yes, And?/Archive 1#Lowercase title. My thoughts here are best summarized by Ss112: "OK, great, but this is trivial information at best. We standardize stylizations on Wikipedia per MOS:CT, MOS:CAPS and so on, and most editors here know this. Literally the only place we would denote this is in the lead in an unnecessary parenthetical note that disrupts the prose, and the creator of the article chose not to include the stylization and to put a note there explicitly stating it should be disregarded."
