  • Article is new enough, long enough, neutral, and well referenced. ALT0 is not accurate: being pressured is not the same as being required. ALT1 is interesting, neutral, and verified. QPQ is done. No copyvio issues. ALT1 is good to go, although we should wait till the move discussion concludes. -Zanhe (talk) 00:03, 23 August 2019 (UTC)

  • ALT3: ... that Younique sellers may be required to purchase products they cannot sell onward in order to maintain status? feminist (talk) 02:17, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
ALT2 and ALT3 are fine, but I still prefer ALT1, which is interesting and purely factual. -Zanhe (talk) 03:55, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
