Talk:Feedback (Janet Jackson song)/GA1

GA Review
[edit]Here are my comments. The article is currently on hold, meaning that you have about a week to fix the problems outlined below.
- Some of the prose is awkward, and I noticed some grammar and punctuation errors. I would strongly suggest performing (or asking WP:LOCE to do) a full, thorough copyedit.
- The lead needs to be expanded to fully summarize the article.
- Some information is missing from the article. The following sections would encompass what's missing. (for a good example, look at The Sweet Escape (song).
- Background and writing (who wrote it, how the idea was conceived, etc.)
- Expansion of the "Music and lyrics" section (analysis of the lyrics—not criticism; that belongs in the criticism section—the chords, the style, etc.)
- The Critical reception section could do with more reviews and commentary.
- A section describing the chart performance would be good, but not necessary.
- It should have a "Personnel" section.
- In the Music video section, the references all shouldn't be at the end unless they're all referencing the last statement. References should come after the sentence that they reference.
- References usually belong after punctuation, at the end of a sentence. There were many references in the middle of sentences; they should be moved to the end of sentences in most cases. (WP:REF)
- I have added {{fact}} tags to all statements needing references.
- Was there any negative feedback on the song? I would suggest reading through reviews for the song, and finding an acceptable proportion of positive to negative reviews to quote in the critical feedback section.
I hope that this is helpful. Keilana|Parlez ici 18:47, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
What I've done so far
[edit]- Resolved fact tags
- Put all sources at end of sentances - Sources all come after the punctuation
- Sorted the sources for the "Music Video" section
- Expanded both the "Critical" and "Commercial" sections
- Done "Personnel"
- Article copy edited by a former member of the Copy edit league
- Lead expanded
This looks good, I'll be passing the article shortly. Excellent work. Keilana|Parlez ici 05:16, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
