• @Fcstmani: Professor Indigo, surely?--Launchballer 07:06, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
• @Launchballer:- Professor is written with one s in Slovak. It is also the only name for the song. :D Fcstmani (talk) 08:09, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

Fair cop, full review needed.--Launchballer 09:36, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

The article is new enough, long enough, and adequately sourced. No QPQ needed as this is the nominator's second nomination. No close paraphrasing was found either. The sources are all in Slovakian so I am assuming good faith for them. Of the two hooks, I prefer the first one because it seems closer to the sources, since apparently the school in question is what Slovakians call a "gymnasium", which is equivalent to a high school but they don't use the term. However, since non-Slovakians may not recognize Nagy, and it isn't even clear that it is talking about a Slovakian song, I suggest adding "Slovakian singer" before his name. Finally, the hook is cited to three different sources: I could not access the Senor.sk source, but the other two verify the information, at least based on Google Translate. This will be good to go once the stuff I raised is addressed. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 11:26, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

• @Narutolovehinata5:- Thanks for taking time to review the nomination! I’ll go through each concern one by one.

1st, Gymnasium (and variations of the word) is a term used in various European languages for a secondary school (high school) that prepares students for university.

2nd, For the hook, how about— Did you know… that Slovak singer Peter Nagy based his song "Profesor Indigo" on his former math teacher?

3rd, I can provide screenshots and a translation of the Senor.sk source if you like.

If there’s any more concerns or something I missed please tell me. :) Fcstmani (talk) 15:49, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

• @Narutolovehinata5:- Screenshot of the Senor.sk source: https://ibb.co/TDrPhk9z — the second paragraph is translated. Underlined sentence in the photo is in bold.

He [Nagy] was born on April 9, 1959 in Prešov, grew up in this city on Štúrová Street in the family of a pilot and a clerk. He learned his first chords from the boys in the neighborhood, received his first guitar from his father after finishing the ninth grade for the units on his school report card, and earned his second one by working part-time. He graduated from grammar school and graduated from the Faculty of Philosophy of the UPJŠ in Prešov. He started as a folk singer while still in high school, he was seventeen when he recorded his first songs in the studio. He took his first concert steps in the bands Profily, Fultura and in the group of Karl Witz. With Witz, he recorded his first hit, Professor Indigo, in the Košice studio of the Slovak Radio, for which the first video clip was also made. The professor from the song was a real-life figure, a mathematics professor at the school which taught Peter. Fcstmani (talk) 19:42, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
