Pre-review comments

[edit]
  • This article falls under WP:RECENTISM; it is still an ongoing event and new information may become available, thus altering the article significantly. GA nomination should be removed or placed on a significant time length review. - (CK)Lakeshade - talk2me - 23:49, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    It was released as a Radio single and hasn't been given an official release. All the info about the music video has been released, and there won't be new reviews for the song or video now either. The only thing that is changing is the weekly chart positions. Nothing else in the article is changing. Calvin NaNaNaC'mon! 01:58, 5 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with (CK)Lakeshade. It is definitely too early. I suggest that you wait for at least 8 weeks. Jivesh Talk2Me 12:55, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The article isn't going to get any significantly bigger in the near future. All that is changing now is the weekly chart positions. If it was a really big article, I'd understand, but it's not, it's only small. Beat of My Drum was created on June 3, 2011 and was nominated for GAN by August 11, and it has been reviewed. Calvin NaNaNaC'mon! 13:35, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
So do you think that "Cheers (Drink to That)" will also chart in only three countries and that its chart performance section will be equally short? Jivesh Talk2Me 16:54, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It isn't. But that is also that is changing. The past week few weeks, all I have had to change is "In it's third week" to "In it's fourth week" to "In it's fifth week". lol Calvin NaNaNaC'mon! 17:31, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The rule of thumb has always been to not nominate an article for GA until the artist has released another song. Agreed with lake. — Status {talkcontribs  00:39, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Fly has been released. Calvin NaNaNaC'mon! 01:03, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • "and serves as the seventh overall single to be released from Loud". This songs like it will still be released as a single. Wasn't it released already?
    I don't understand what you are saying? Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
    "of Avril Lavigne's "I'm With You"," You already mentioned Lavigne before. It would be better like this: "of Lavigne's "I'm With You",".
    Oh, I did that already. Calvin NaNaNaC'mon! 14:03, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
     Done Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • "Thus far, "Cheers (Drink to That)" has so far". Can you re-write this? I think it's a little weird...
     Done Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • "charting at numbers five and eight, respectively, and has also peaked at number 11". Either "charting at numbers five and eight, respectively, and has also peaked at number eleven" or "charting at numbers 5 and 8, respectively, and has also peaked at number 11".
    Single digit numbers are written as a word, double digits are written numerically. Have spilt into two sentences anyway. Calvin NaNaNaC'mon! 13:01, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    Ok. :) - Sauloviegas (talk) 13:49, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Critical reception

[edit]
  • "Upon the songs release, the song received generally positive reviews from music critics." -> "Upon its release as a single, "Cheers (Drink to That)" received generally positive reviews from music critics."
     Done Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • "stated that as rock-arena song, which contains sample by Avril Lavigne is written for barroom singalongs," -> "stated that, as rock-arena song, which contains sample by Avril Lavigne, is written for barroom singalongs,"
     Done Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • Try to replace "the song" (which is repeated a lot) with "Cheers (Drink to That)" or it when appropriate.

  • Where are the recording locations?
    I don't know, i don't have a physical copy of the album booklet. Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • Which one of these are really the genres: incorporates the musical elements of dancehall[9], dance-pop,[10] pop rock,[11] and R&B? (taken from background and composition)
    I removed the dancehall source and genre, but the Pop-rock one is from a critics review, so that is the genre. People like to add dancehall back in a lot. Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!

    Done Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • The song impacted US Mainstream and Rhythmic radio on August 2, 2011, and serves as the seventh overall single to be released from Loud. Rewrite. If you want a suggestion, ask me. Feel free.
    Done Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • "Cheers (Drink to That)" was produced by Harr and Jackson under their stage name The Runners, and contains interpolations of Lavigne's "I'm With You", which is featured on her album Let Go (2002). >>> Break the sentence as it does not make sense in this structure.
    Done Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • which is featured on her album >>> which is featured on her debut album,
    Done Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • confidence party-drinking >>> is that a quote from somewhere?
    Removed "confidence" Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • By writing The song has received positive reviews from music critics, you are encouraging those who came with the WP:RECENTISM issue. Change to The song garnered positive reviews from music critics,
    Done Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • who praised the interpolation of Lavigne's "I'm with You", as well as commenting that it would be a successful club song due to its lyrical content >>> Why the changed from past tense to the usage of -ing endings???
    Done Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • "Cheers (Drink to That)" has so far managed to peak inside >>> managed??? Come on. Rihanna's songs do not struggle my dear Calvin. You know it much better than me. Lol
    Done, but Man Down, California King Bed, If I Never See your Face Again, Who's That Chick, Rockstar 101, If It's Lovin That You Want, We Ride, Redemption Song and Wait Your Turn struggled. Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • "Cheers (Drink to That)" has so far managed to peak inside the top ten in New Zealand and Australia, charting at numbers five and eight, respectively. >>> same here. You use past tense then switch to -ing endings.
    Done Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • Who directed the video? Care to mention in lead. This will be questioned at FAC (if one is intended)
    Done Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • "Cheers (Drink to That)" is included >>> was
    Done I've never understood how it should be "was" when it is currently happening. Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
  • It is set list. I have told you this so many times now.
    Done Alrighttttttttttttttttttt Calvin NaNaNaC'mon! 17:53, 12 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
General Comment.: Finally you have decided to put the years in brackets!!! Why this change? Just curious. Jivesh Talk2Me 17:33, 11 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
What do you mean? I've always proceeded the tour name by the year in brackets. If I remember correctly, you told me last time not to do it if I don't do it for the songs as well. Calvin NaNaNaC'mon!
Corrections done??? Jivesh Talk2Me 16:54, 12 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
