I will review this later today! --K. Peake 07:58, 18 August 2022 (UTC)

Infobox and lead

• Should Pye studios really be piped to when Pye Records in linked in the infobox anyway?

• I think so since Pye Studios may end up with its own article one day, rather than being a redirect to Pye Records.

• Move the inspiration sentence to being the one before the musical description

• Done.

• The term "simple" is not notable for the lead

• Done.

• "The song is one of" → ""Johnny Thunder" is one of"

• Done. I also moved this sentence so it opened the paragraph, which seemed a bit more natural.

• "Davies expressed desires publicly" → "Ray expressed desires publicly" per MOS:SAMESURNAME

• Done.

• Should Anthony Gezale's stage name really be italicised?

• I believe so by MOS:WORDSASWORDS.

Background and composition

• Quote box and first para look good!
• Should Johnny Thunder be surrounded by speech marks or is this about the name, not the song title?

• I clarified it as The Johnny Thunder character ...

• Remove comma before "David Watts"

• Done.

• "lead character, Johnny, as" → "lead character Johnny, as"

• Done.

• Why is Johnny Thunder italicised?

• MOS:WORDSASWORDS

• Are you sure straightforward is an appropriate term, rather than something like traditional?

• Andy Miller used the word "straightforward" to describe the song's simple production and Jon Savage describes it as one of the album's "great rock songs". I'm worried the way I had it written was a bit too close to WP:SYNTH, since the authors were saying different things, so I've rewritten it. I've left Savage to source it as being a rock song, while I've moved Miller's mention of it being a straightforward production to the recording section.

• Pipe rock to Rock music

• Done.

• Remove the Kinks' 1968 album introduction since this being in the lead is sufficient

• Done.

Recording and release

• Img and first para look good!
• "when he expanded its track listing" → "when he expanded the track listing"

• Done.

• Remove comma before "and personally phoned", also moving [22] solely to the end of the sentence

• Done.

• "likened its fast strumming to" → "likened the fast strumming to"

• Done.

• The eventual guitarist role is not sourced and why is Johnny Thunders italicised?

• Removed guitarist mention. Italicised because of MOS:WORDSASWORDS.

Notes

• Good

References

• Copyvio score looks fab at 18.0%!!!!

Bibliography

• Good
