GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.
- Is it well written?
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
In the Critical reception section, "...and provided hints of Cyrus's future musical direction" ---> "...and provided hints of Cyrus' future musical direction". Same section, this ---> "...Sal Cinquemani of the online Slant Magazine", doesn't quite make sense. In the Chart performance section, "...the next week" replace "next" with "following", has better wording. Same section, "...the song ascended to number sixteen and became Cyrus's second best charting single in the United Kingdom" ---> "...the song ascended to number sixteen and became Cyrus' second best charting single in the United Kingdom." In the Live performances section, "The set, with some songs by Cyrus's father" ---> "The set, with some songs by Cyrus' father". Same section, there's too much repetition of "Cyrus", maybe have a consistency. Same section, "Fly on the Wall" is one of the songs on the set list of Cyrus's first international concert tour" ---> "Fly on the Wall" is one of the songs on the set list of Cyrus' first international concert tour".- Done. -- Ipodnano05 (talk) 22:29, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

- B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
Throughout the article, please link "first person" and "plaid" to their correspondence articles. In the Critical reception section, the Heather Phares' quote about the song being a "G-rated version of Britney Spears' "Toxic", is the quote together with the addition of "Toxic"? If so, it needs to be ---> "Heather Phares of Allmusic said the song was a "G-rated version of Britney Spears' 'Toxic'". In the Chart performance section, "...the week ending March 18 at number fifty seven", "fifty seven" ---> "fifty-seven". In the Live performances section, please link "See You Again", "Breakout", "7 Things", and "The Climb" once.- Linked plaid with its corresponding page, corrected the quote and Austria position, and linked all songs once in the Live performances section. -- Ipodnano05 (talk) 22:29, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
