Grabbing this like we agreed on. Will get to it this weekend :-) – zmbro (talk) 23:18, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]


Infobox and lead

[edit]
  • Do we have recording dates or genres available?
  • Since Cudi is one half of the duo you really don't need to use "Kid" for every use, at least imo
  • In the context of the duo's article or the album one you would be right, but for song articles I don't think this is correct since it's only his stage name and this has not come up in any of the other reviews. --K. Peake 18:21, 6 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rest looks good for now

Background and recording

[edit]
  • "at the time he first met Kid Cudi in 2007," → "at the time when he first met Kid Cudi in 2007,"
  • "West did not contribute to the production of" → "West did not contribute any production to"
  • Could you add a photo of Cudi and West here?

Composition and lyrics

[edit]
  • No explicit genres present?
  • "Kid Cudi's single "Pursuit of Happiness" (2009)" → "Cudi's 2009 single "Pursuit of Happiness"
  • "delivers the first verse of the song." → "delivers the first verse."

Release and promotion

[edit]
  • Link Pete Davidson
  • "with her cover altering the original's composition somewhat." Kinda vague and non-encyclopedic. I'd be more specific without making the caption too long, or just remove this entirely.

Critical reception

[edit]
  • " with them often praising the lyrical content." → " with many praising the lyrical content."
  • " in his opinion" – remove this. Having reviews like this are always implied to be their opinions so stating it is redundant.
  • What's The Line of Best Fit and is it an RS? Never heard of it
  • Link Billboard?
  • After reading RS's review, I'm surprised I didn't see more people call it repetitive. I always thought towards the end it got repetitive so it's good to know someone else saw it this way as well.
  • Accolades section looks good

Commercial performance

[edit]
  • "debuted at number 39 on the US Billboard Hot 100.[59] By doing so, it stood as the highest"; too many words, try "debuted at number 39 on the US Billboard Hot 100,[59] making it the highest"
  • Rest looks good

Credits and personnel

[edit]
  • Move the "credits adapted" part to the top.
  •  Not done when recording locations are backed up by other sources at the top, the liner notes should be cited lower down
  • Shouldn't West & Cudi have "vocals" next to their names?

Charts

[edit]
  • Looks good

Certifications

[edit]
  • Looks good

References

[edit]
  • Would ref 10 be an RS?
  • Is ref 11 reliable?
  • Is ref 29 reliable?
  • Is ref 43 reliable? (I'm not trying to be annoying, I just genuinely haven't heard of many of these pubs)

Final thoughts

[edit]
  • This one might be your best written article I've reviewed yet. Also, personal thanks for bringing this one up to standard. When KSG came out, I started many of its song articles, including this one. After seeing you bring "4th Dimension" and "Cudi Montage" (both of which I also started) up to standard, I always wondered if you'd ever get around to this one. Also, hard to believe your first edit on this song was this. Should be passed in no time :-) – zmbro (talk) 17:01, 6 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
