Hi there, I saw you on the FAC mentor page, where you mentioned your interest in British history. Let me introduce you to a quintessential part of British history - One Direction. The boy band is considered one of the best-selling and most successful music acts in the world, have been attributed towards forming part of the new "British invasion" in the United States, and their impact on fan hysteria has had them compares to The Beatles and Beatlemania. I am looking forward to promoting this article to FA by the band's 15th anniversary this July, so all help is appreciated. Thank you! :) jolielover♥talk 15:55, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Jolielover: Thanks for the note, but I don't think I'm the right person for this; I don't really have as much time for Wikipedia as I used to. There are lots of people who have had experience bringing articles about pop musicians to FA status, though, so I'm confident you'll be able to find some support.
