Hello, I'm Calvin999 and I am reviewing this article.

Review
  • One link need dabbing
  • One suspicious link
  • Alphabetise the genres in the info box. So pop before swing
  • Just include Leonard's surname in the producer parameter in the info box
  • It was released on June 30, 1990 → Comma after 1990 per WP:MOSDATE
  • Written by Madonna and Patrick Leonard, → Written and produced by Madonna and Patrick Leonard,
  • Link Patrick Leonard
  • Info box says Pop and Swing, but the lead says Swing and Jazz? Can you provide me with the sentences from the sources used which states the genres? Because in the composition section, they are all cited to a book which I can't check.
  • with women's grouping → What do you mean by grouping?
  • it as harmful → Harmful? In what way? Saying a song is harmful requires explanation
  • were written as a joke. → perhaps intended as a joke?
  • The song was appreciated by most music critics, → The song garnered a positive response amongst music critics
  • its "risqué" lyrical content. → Quotes in the lead require a citation
  • topping the charts in Finland. → Unless there's more than one chart in Finland, 'charts' should be singular
  • song in two → song on two
  • Madonna was part of the film Dick Tracy starring as Breathless Mahoney → Madonna starred in the 1990 film Dick Tracy , playing Breathless Mahoney
  • In her favor, she produced the entire album, → In her favour?
  • Recording sessions for the album took place at Johnny Yuma Recording and Ocean Way Studios in Los Angeles, California, and concluded by three weeks. → Info about the album is not relevant here
  • For the Irish refs, use Irish Recorded Music Association for the work parameter instead of Irish Singles Charts

Calvin999 I addressed all your concerns, except two points. One, I could not find any erroneous external link and two, the Ireland chart uses the {{singlechart}} template from where the citation is generated. And I'm opposed to adding manual formatting for chart templates. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 15:45, 14 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oh and the genres should be jazz and swing only, per that book view where the author is saying "has a false intro..quite slow.. before it suddenly springs into life into a jazz and swing boogie with a walking bassline... " —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 15:48, 14 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) The suspicious link isn't there anymore. Okay, if it's a template. But the template's need changing really, because the work listed is as such just the name of the chart, not the company who publishes it.  — Calvin999 15:50, 14 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
