- I've read the article and found some few issues:
- Lead
- The song is widely recognized as one of Aguilera's signature songs. ---> Remove it to the second paragraph
- It has since been certified platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) and gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and Recording Industry Association of New Zealand (RIANZ). ---> Too much information, fix it
- The song won the Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 2004 Grammy Awards, and was also nominated for Song of the Year. ---> The song won a Grammy Award for Best Pop Female Vocal Performance, and was also nominated for Song of the Year at the 2004 ceremony
- "Beautiful" was listed at number 52 on Rolling Stone's top 100 songs of the 2000s and number 18 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of '00s list. ---> "Beautiful" was listed at number 52 on Rolling Stone's top 100 songs of the 2000s and number 18 on the same list by VH1
- "Beatiful" has been covered numerous times; notable performers, such as Elvis Costello, David Archuleta, Kenny G, and Chaka Khan have recorded their own versions of the song. ---> Repetition of "Beautiful", try "the song" or "it"
- The third paragraph: Add "An accompanying music video was directed by XXX..."
- Background and composition
- It's a short section, but there are two files. Replace one of them
- Commercial performance
- The single was very successful worldwide, but this section is too short. Try to write more.
- Music video and live performances
- Merge them together into a new section "Promotion", because they're short
- Cultural impact and cover versions
- Merge them together
- The rest: Still reviewing. — HĐ (talk) 11:28, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
Done all up to this point. I will be making sure to check back on the review often and make sure I complete further requested changes. Thanks for taking on the review! WikiRedactor (talk) 19:55, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
Some more issues
- Lead
- The song won the Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 2004 Grammy Awards, and was also nominated for Song of the Year at the 2004 ceremony. ---> Repetition of "The song", fix "Beautiful" won a Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, and also was nominated for Song of the Year at the 2004 ceremony
- "Beautiful" was listed at number 52 on Rolling Stone's top 100 songs of the 2000s and number 18 on on the same list by VH1. ---> Has a problem
- Critical reception
- Add some best-of lists (like Rolling Stone's 100 greatest songs of the 2000s, etc...)
- Year-end charts
- What year?
- Certifications
- The source for New Zealand certification is not reliable. Try to find another source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HĐ (talk • contribs) 01:25, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
Done all but the last, as the reference directs to the official RIANZ. Might you have confused it for another citation? WikiRedactor (talk) 21:46, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
- I couldn't find it either. Links for RIANZ certifications are very bad, most of them are dead. But you did very great, so I passed it for you! Good job, just "Keeps Gettin' Better" ! HĐ (talk) 04:22, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
