A fact from Dicen Que Soy appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 24 April 2014 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that La India's recordings of "Ese Hombre" and "Dicen Que Soy", on her album Dicen Que Soy, have been described as "anthems for female salsa lovers"?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2014/April. The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Dicen Que Soy.

Haha, I had a feeling either you or AJona1992 would do the review for this article! ;) Erick (talk) 18:59, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Psh, I saw it (being a India album) and saw you nominated it, so I decided to take it, haha. :) — Diva Knockouts 19:50, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

General

The album cover needs alt text.

But this is usually only required for articles or lists going for featured content

Prose

Introduction

The album was produced by American musician Sergio George, who chose the songs for India to record with the emphasis on feminism to suit with her voice. → The album was produced by American musician Sergio George, who chose the songs for India to record, with an emphasis on feminism to suit with her voice.

Done

Add a comma after "charts".

"In the United States, it peaked at number four and one on the Billboard Top Latin Albums and Tropical Albums charts, respectively, and has..."? I don't think it flows when there's already a comma after "respectively".

Background

Add a comma after "Atlantic Records".

Done

Her first recording under the label was a cover of Basilio's song "Vivir lo Nuestro" as a duet with Anthony for the RMM compilation album Combinacion Perfecta (1993). → Her first recording under the label was a cover of Basilio's song "Vivir lo Nuestro", a duet with Anthony for the RMM compilation album Combinacion Perfecta (1993).

Done

Add a comma after "perform", before "despite".

Done

Recording and music style

Could this section be renamed Recording and musical characteristics instead? Music styles seems a bit, you know, plain. (Just a suggestion)

I agree.

Add a comma after "Lupita D'Alessio".

Done

Add a comma after "counterbalance".

Done

Replace the "In" in "In describing the production..." with "When".

Done

"Puerto Rican singer Tito Nieves is featured on the song "No Me Conviene". "Vivir lo Nuestro" was included as a bonus track for the album." — Combine these two sentences with "and".

Done

Singles

Everything looks fine here.

Reception

Where is the reference for over 144,000 sales as of 2000?

FN 23. The same source which talks about sales for salsa albums not being reported. The only reason I put in a note is in case a reader wonders why that's the latest sales I could find for Dicen Que Soy.

Otherwise, everything else looks good.

Thanks!

Tracklisting

Add the parameter for all production credits to Sergio George.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. Wouldn't this be more fitting for studio albums that has several tracks done by different producers? I mean, having "George" at the end of each song doesn't seem necessary since it's already established that he's the sole producer of the album.

I meant the parameter |all_music=Sergio George. I've added it for you. Feel free to remove it, if you feel it isn't necessary. - Diva Knockouts 18:38, 20 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Chart performance

I know it may be hard to find Year-End charts for 2000 and beyond albums, but have you checked?

You mean 1994 and 1995? I looked at the 1994 year-end charts and the album wasn't there (not surprising since it was released late in the year) and the 1995 year-end charts isn't available on Google Books so there's nothing I can do about that. :(

References

FN3 — Full date is October 30, 2004 according to Amazon.
FN4 — Full date is October 1, 1999 according to Amazon.
FN9 — Add date parameter, full date is June 18, 1997 according to Amazon.
FN16 — According to Amazon, the date is August 10, 1995. I suppose you were using the digital release year.

I've handled these for you.

Thank you very much!

Putting article on hold, until these minor issues have been resolved. — Diva Knockouts 19:50, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
