Reviewer: EditorE (talk · contribs) 22:05, 4 November 2013 (UTC) Okay, GA review here we go! Lead and infobox look fine to me.
- Recording and Production
- Since recording can be part of production and this section is also talking about the music of this album, I'd consider renaming this section to "Production and music". After all, a wikipedia album article would never be complete without a section that at least talks about the composition anyway, so it be worth for the reader to find where the info about the music of the album is being discussed. 和DITOREtails 22:05, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
- Completely agree, the last paragraph is discussing the musical style, indeed. Consider it done.--Вик Ретлхед (talk) 22:59, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
- Aside from that, the section looks good.
- Lyrics
- "The song was noted by critics for it's great social and philosophical impact." sources would be nice
- Included the Rivaldivia description of the song.--Вик Ретлхед (talk) 23:24, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
- Can we also organize all the track info into the track number order? That would be way better.
- I asked a fellow editor to take this task; I'm sure he can handle it better than me. I'd be very grateful if you can give me two or three days to resolve this issue.--Вик Ретлхед (talk) 00:37, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
- Reception
- Did a few minor changes, but looks fine
- "Spin wrote: "Countdown to Extinction may just be the finest thrash metal album ever made, although purists may find it a bit too polished and easy to swallow"" --> "Spin wrote that the album "may just be the finest thrash metal album ever made, although purists may find it a bit too polished and easy to swallow".

- Sales and impact
- Since this section is talking about the commercial performances of the album, could we also mention the international chart positions somewhere too?
- Wrote a few sentences about charts outside its native country and received certifications as well.
- Charts
- Any year-end chart positions?
- Found the American year-end position; according to Hung Medien, the album didn't finish as best-seller in other countries.
- The weekly and year-end charts need to have their own seperate tables. Fixed

- References and other comments
- Accessdate for ref 54, 55 or 56?
- Done.
- Liner notes citation from 2004 reissue, cause we need it for the 2004 remix credits and the bonus track listing for it? Any info we can use from the liner notes of the 2012 anniversary box sex too in the article?
- Added the booklet from the 2004 issue. The liner notes from the 2012 edition can be read at ref #17 (the Kory Grow text)--Вик Ретлхед (talk) 23:24, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
