Overall: Both hooks are interesting, although I personally prefer the 1st one. The article was created in time and is long enough, Earwig's Copyvio Detector showed a low enough percentage, both hooks are mentioned and sourced in the article. However, it feels a bit weird that 100 gecs isn't properly mentioned in the first hook considering that it's their song. Could you reword it so that there's a mention of the band as a whole? Thanks for creating the article btw. mike•owendiscuss19:54, 10 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
Hi, I came by to promote ALT0a. In the article, I only see one song being teased by Rico Nasty, and Brady is only mentioned in connection with that song. Yoninah (talk) 14:40, 1 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Yoninah: If you are to pick ALT0a over ALT1... under the "Release and promotion" subsection: To provoke fans, Brady teased on Twitter that he had a third collaboration with Nasty on the way, after Nasty previously teased the song "iPhone" in November 2019.Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Thanks♥) 14:51, 1 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

If it is, we should change its name to something that reflects that. Remixes rarely get their own articles and it'll keep it a stub if it remains that way. Just make the article for everything related to Ringtone. Mrmoustache14 (talk) 04:54, 10 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
It's a strange case where the remix is notable but the original isn't quite. The only other case I can think of like this is I Took a Pill in Ibiza, and that article is confusingly more about the original than the actually notable remix of it. casualdejekyll00:41, 26 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
