Bias

I have not come across many "negative" reviews from newspaper columnists from ANY of Gwen's concerts supporting L.A.M.B. I think some proof needs to be provided, or the bias needs to be eliminated.

About reviews

Her tour has really got negative reviews, unfortunately, not any of her first three concert dates received positive review, saying that it should have been other way round that Gwen should have been opening act for Black Eyed Peas. I don't know where you read your tour reviews, but here are few. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] Just google "Gwen Stefani Tour" and you will get lot's of reviews, the reviews from fans are not as trust worthy as from real magazine contributors, fans will always say positive things about their idols.

Gwen has got positive feedback as well, all her concerts in LA received great reviews, but because this is not a Gwen Stefani fan forum, I think we should write things as they are. And at the moment her concert reviews are not same as they were when she was touring with No Doubt.

Merge proposal

Harajuku Lovers Live covers much the same ground as this article; it seems logical that it be merged as a section in this article, lest both articles remain stubby. ShadowHalo 03:41, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tour date reference

I have a reference site, http://www.livedaily.com/news/8869.html, for the tour dates, but I have no clue how to properly cite it. Can anybody help? (If anybody looks at this page...) —Preceding unsigned comment added by EsocksLAMB (talk • contribs) 02:58, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Although Stefani embarked on multiple tours with her band No Doubt, she initially opt not to participate in a tour to promote her album, an attitude that the singer eventually abandoned due to the commercial success of Love. Angel. Music. Baby.. --> Although Stefani embarked on multiple tours with her band No Doubt, she initially opt not to participate in a tour to promote her album; an attitude that the singer eventually abandoned due to the commercial success of Love.

Not done The sentence is correct as it is.
It was first announced on June 27, 2005. --> Not important to the lead.

Overall

Overall, the article is pretty well done.
Do you think any more pictures from the tour should be squeezed into the article?
I added a picture in the Broadcast and recordings section.

I believed I have addressed all of the issues. :) —DAP388 (talk) 03:09, 17 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

All issues have been addressed. I am passing the article! Great work! Sorry for the wait; I don't know if you checked my talk page or not, but I had surgery on the 17th and I have been recovering. Statυs (talk) 03:08, 20 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
