Link to download broken?

When you try to download the song off the link given, I receive an error message. If this is happening to everyone, then the link should be removed because it doesn't work. So, is this happening to anyone else? --RACiEP (talk) 23:55, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lyrics needed?

Are the lyrics really needed? Lyrics aren't featured on any other songs that I've checked. SAVIOR_SELF.777 04:36, 31 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Quite a short article, which I will measure against the GA criteria today. --K. Peake 07:39, 18 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox and lead

Remove venue parameter from the infobox because that is for live recordings
Separate the labels using bullet points instead
Target Michael Corcoran to Michael Corcoran (musician)
Move audio sample to being in the opening section, aligned to the left

Kyle Peake what do you mean by this? The Ultimate Boss (talk) 09:44, 18 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"is the debut single by American actress and singer Miranda Cosgrove featuring Drake Bell." → "is a song by American actress and singer Miranda Cosgrove, featuring Drake Bell, from the Nickelodeon show iCarly's soundtrack album of the same name (2008)." with the wikilinks and target – this is because you are supposed to introduce what album(s) a song is on in the first sentence of the lead
"It was written" → "The song was written"
Swap the pop song and lead single sentences
Target theme song to Theme music
"for the Nickelodeon show iCarly." → "for the show."
"for soundtrack album of the same name" → "from the album" and maybe mention at the end "standing as Cosgrove's debut release."
Swap the music video and Hot 100 position for correct order
Wikilink music video
"uploaded to Cosgroves" → "uploaded to Cosgrove's"
"The single debuted and peaked at" → "The song peaked at"
"giving Cosgrove and Bell" → "giving both Cosgrove and Bell"
"performed the track during" → "performed "Leave It All to Me" during"
"her Dancing Crazy Tour in 2011." → "her debut sold tour the Dancing Crazy Tour in 2011."

Background and composition

"Miranda Cosgrove was asked by" → "Cosgrove was asked by"
Target theme song to Theme music
"Cosgrove explained she" → "The singer explained she"
"or been a recording studio," → "or been in a recording studio,"
"one of Bell's band members." → "one of Drake Bell's band members."
"features her former Drake & Josh co-star, Drake Bell." → "features Bell, who co-starred with her in Drake & Josh."
The source does not mention the song's genre as being pop
There is no info about the comp apart from the above unsourced genre and literally nothing on the lyrics; can you try and add something?

Release and reception

Wikilink lead single
Remove wikilink on soundtrack album
"iCarly by Nickelodeon Records and Columbia Records." → "iCarly, through Nickelodeon and Columbia Records."
"list' saying: "the" → "list, saying that "the"
"giving Cosgrove and Bell" → "giving both Cosgrove and Bell"
[9] is useless, as that offers no mention of the song's Hot 100 position

Promotion and impact

Wikilink music video
"was later released on" → "was later released to"
"headlining 2011 concert tour" → "headlining 2011 concert tour the"
"the song at Cosgrove's performance at Club Nokia." → "the song at Club Nokia, with his appearance gathering cheers from the crowd." since this part is mentioned by the source but is missing for some reason
"it had been six years since Cosgrove released her extended play, High Maintenance," → "it had been around six years since Cosgrove released her second extended play High Maintenance,"
"In April of the same year," → "In April 2017,"
"had stated in the past that she" → "revealed that she"
Target lip-syncing to Lip sync

Final comments and verdict

On hold until all of the issues are fixed, but I am not too sure about the article's notability though this will become clearer after your response. --K. Peake 08:37, 18 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done! The Ultimate Boss (talk) 09:44, 18 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The Ultimate Boss With the comment about the audio sample, I meant it should be in the background and composition section on the left. Also, you could definitely do with adding a mention of the lyrics to the lead. --K. Peake 10:14, 18 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Kyle Peake added. How does the article look now? The Ultimate Boss (talk) 10:26, 18 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The Ultimate Boss I copy edited slightly, but it looks good apart from no text on the audio sample detailing the lyrical content; add this since it is sourced in prose, as well as the length of the snippet. --K. Peake 10:30, 18 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
