Johnny Logan

• ... that at the Eurovision Song Contest 1992 Johnny Logan (pictured) became the first person to win the contest three times as either a performer or a songwriter? Source: "He'll always be the original double winner (not to mention his third victory as a songwriter!) but now Johnny's got some company at the top." "Slechts vijf mensen wisten eerder minstens twee keer als artiest of schrijver het songfestival te winnen. Johnny Logan deed dat zelfs driemaal. In 1980 en 1987 won hij als artiest met respectievelijk What’s Another Year en Hold Me Now en in 1992 schreef hij het winnende liedje Why Me van Linda Martin."
  • ALT1: ... that the top three songs at the Eurovision Song Contest 1992 were also the only three entries to be performed in English? Source: "The top three songs were all performed in English [..."] "In 1992 the top three songs were also the only three songs in English in the entire contest."
  • ALT2: ... that of all the countries that had ever participated in the Eurovision Song Contest at that time, only two former participating nations did not compete in the 1992 event? Source: "A record 23 countries took part, with only Morocco and Monaco staying at home."

Created by Sims2aholic8 (talk). Self-nominated at 13:33, 3 March 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Eurovision Song Contest 1992; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

• Note that the article was not created (as per nomination), but made a Good Article within the last week, which however also makes it eligible for DYK. Article is thus both good and long enough, with an interesting hook (main hook prefered) with no question of reliablity or validity of statement. Good to go as far as I'm concerned, but my review could perhaps be double-checked as a new reviewer. Thismess (talk) 19:27, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
• Hi Thismess, I had a look as you asked and this was your first review. The review is a bit short, did you check WP:EARWIG for text copyright violations and the images for copyvios? Were there any problems? See Template:Did you know nominations/Umrao Singh Sher-Gil for an example of a review that shows what the reviewer checked. TSventon (talk) 22:09, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

Have checked, no violations could be found. Thismess (talk) 23:07, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

Thismess I ran an Earwig report and it shows a 20.0% similarity for https://eurovision.tv/story/revisit-malmo-1992. It says Violation Unlikely, but it is necessary to check the detail. As it was your first review, you are not expected to kbow everything. Some duplications like the Eurovision Song Contest 1992, are not a problem.

Sims2aholic8 several phrases (an indoor ice hockey arena constructed in 1970 and Of all the countries that had ever participated in the Contest and absent from this year's event) seem to be copied from eurovision.tv, could you reword them? TSventon (talk) 23:34, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

@TSventon and Thismess: Thanks for flagging. Rewrites complete, copyvio similarity now at 12%, which as noted is likely down to key phrases which are impossible to avoid. Hopefully this now satisfies that point of concern. Sims2aholic8 (talk) 09:58, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Sims2aholic8, it looks fine now, I can't see any unnecessary duplication of text. TSventon (talk) 10:27, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
