Expect a review soon. --Paparazzzi (talk) 21:15, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, but I'm going to fail this nomination for the following reasons:

The artwork seems to be a fan-art. Its description does not feature any source proving it's official
The lead section does not feature all the important content about this article, which should include reviews from critics, commercial performance, live performances...
Music notes is not a reliable source for genres. Genres are taken from music reviews
Ref. 4 is unreliable because it is a Twitter fan account, it's not even Billie's. Also, the source is not formatted properly
Video games titles must be italicized, so ilomilo the video game should be written in italics
Incorrect spelling of YouTube
Hot Ones is not a YouTube creator, is a YouTube series by a channel called First We Feast
"genre of the song is Alternative Pop/Rock and Indie Pop." Music genres should be written all in lowercase
When talking about the meaning of the track, you should mention who said those comments, if it was the singer herself or some music reviewers. With that being said, it is not really good to rely on one single source
More sources from multiple reviewers are needed to describe the composition of the song
Release and Reception → Release and reception
The "Release and reception" does not give much details about the song's release as a single, it does not states in which country was it release, or in which format
The information about the release should be at the beginning of the first paragraph, that's why it's called Release and reception
debuted at number 62 on the US Billboard Hot 100 for a week during the beginning of April 2019. → mention the exact date
It also topped the charts in multiple countries, including: Australia, Canada, Germany, Sweden, and the Netherlands. Besides the fact that this is not referenced, it is not accurate
"It was certified gold in Canada, Australia and the United States." Again, no sources backing this up
""Ilomilo" was met with critical appraise upon release." This is WP:SYNTH. You should remove it unless you find a source stating that the song was indeed "met with critical appraise"
Only three reviews? I'm pretty sure that more can de added, given how big the album was
Add reviews from articles dedicated to the song itself, not only album reviews (if you are able to find some)
Remove the "Various" row from the Release history section, because that's the album's release date
Some of the titles from the references are written in upper-case, which is not correct.
A Live performances section should be added

With all of those points, I'm failing this nomination. There's still work to be done to this article, it could easily be a GA in the future but not at this point. It needs many changes and additions which can't be completed in a few days. I would highly recommend to nominate this article later at WP:GOCE to review the prose. And I really hope the nominator does not feel discouraged with this result. I would also recommend him to ask a more experienced user in these topics to review the article before he nominates it again for GA. Paparazzzi (talk) 17:20, 18 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Paparazzzi: Hi there! Note that I've rewritten the entire article and nominated it for GAN again. All the best; Cartoon network freak (talk) 19:28, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
