  • Good article, in time, long enough, sourced, inline hook citations check out, QPQ not needed. --Usernameunique (talk) 18:59, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this. While you've provided a lot of alts basically saying the same thing, I think you're assuming that most readers know about Kelly's background and can therefore understand/appreciate these hooks. Personally, I've never heard of him. I think you would do better by adding more background to the hooks, like that while admitting to X, Y, and Z in his song "I Admit", R. Kelly makes no criminal admissions, or that in response to the song "I Admit", R. Kelly's ex-wife sang her own song, "Admit It", or that a critic compared the song to O. J. Simpson's book (this last one will for sure draw readers). Yoninah (talk) 23:08, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
    Hi
    If I Did It
    . Here is an alt that hopefully gives more of what you're looking for:

    ALT8:... that
    If I Did It
    ?
    I've added a new supporting source to the list of sources above. — Newslinger talk 08:01, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
  • Thank you, ALT8 looks very good. Since I suggested something along those lines, pinging @Usernameunique: to review ALT8. Yoninah (talk) 18:50, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
