Info box
  • Artwork needs an alt= description
  •  Done
  • Use a {{hlist|Insert name here|}} for the record labels and producers in the info box
  •  Done
  • How can an album be three different genres? Surely it has one musical genre and elements of others?
  •  Not done The only genre that reggaeton, salsa, and bolero would fit under would be Latin music. However, Latin music is too broad in itself as it literally embodies dozens of musical genres. In the case of this album, it is not just reggaeton songs. It isn't just salsa songs and it isn't just bolero songs. You see what I'm trying to say? I might be a little confusing.
  • Platinum edition artwork needs removing as it has no critical commentary to make it notable for inclusion.
  •  Done
Lead
  • Link studio album
  •  Done
  • Link Puerto Rican
  •  Done
  • reggaetón recording artist → Remove her style of musical artist from here.
  •  Done
  • It also features vocal collaborations with Don Omar, Arcángel, Tito "El Bambino", Ken-Y, Randy and Naldo. The album also → Repetition of 'also'
  •  Done
  • alternates between reggaetón, bolero, and salsa. → How can an album alternate?
  •  Not done See above comment.
  • The move in musical composition is credited to Queen's evolution as a musical artist. → This makes no sense because you don't previously what was different about her style beforehand.
  •  Done
  • It debuted at number 105 on the Billboard 200, selling nine thousand copies in its first week. → I wouldn't particularly say it was a success followed by missing out on the Top 100 positions and selling 9,000 copies.
  •  Not done. Well, you have to look at it from a "Latin" sense. Latin certifications are not nearly as much as regular certifications. A Latin gold certification (at the time) is 50,000 copies while a Latin platinum certification is 100,000 copies. For a regular it would be 500,000 and 1,000,000 respectively. The album reached it's Latin gold and platinum certifications in less than a month. So, in a sense, it was successful.
  • As of 2010, the album has sold over 154,000 copies. → Where? Puerto Rico? U.S.? Worldwide?
  •  Done
Background
  • Perfect Image Records, José Guadalupe → You don't need a comma here
  • Perfect Image, Anthony Pérez → Same here. You would only use one if you also placed a comma after their surnames, too.
  • They were divorced in 2005 shortly before the release of Flashback, → Link Flashback
  • which influenced the composition of the Sentimiento, which → Repetition of 'which'
  • Billboard Latin Rhythm Songs chart and number thirty on the Billboard Tropical Songs chart. → Both need linking like in the lead. Link in the lead, then link first time in the main body.
Recording and production
  • Link concept album
  • You need to say that recording began in 2006 at the studios in one sentence, not say where in the first paragraph and when in the second paragraph.
Music and lyrics
  • In the first paragraph, as an example, you use quotations without citations, making them hard to verify. Ideally, you would place a citation at the end of each sentence.
  • Musically, the album alternates between reggaetón, bolero, and salsa. → Again, the use of 'alternates' makes this confusing
Commercial performance
  • This is one massive paragraph. Needs splitting into at least two paragraphs.
  • Sentimiento sold nine thousand copies in its first week, becoming Queen's first album to "invade" the Billboard 200 chart, debuting at number 105. → What country is this.
  • The album has sold over 100,000 copies in Puerto Rico and Chile. → I presume this is combined and not separately.
  • For the Billboard chart names, you don't need to include Billboard as part of the name and linking every time.
  • It debuted at number four on the Billboard Latin Albums chart, behind releases by Jennifer Lopez, Los ;Tigres del Norte, and Grupo Bryndis.[56] The album has sold over 100,000 copies in Puerto Rico and Chile.[57] On the Billboard Latin Songs chart, "Que Lloren" debuted at number twenty-four for the week dated February 24, 2007, becoming that week's "Hot Shot Debut" and peaked at number ten on the week of May 12, 2007. → You go from U.S. to Chile/Puerto Rico back to U.S. Keep countries grouped together instead of mixing them up.
  • It's Dance Club Songs now.
Reception
  • Call it Critical reception
  • best album, yet. → Why is there a comma here?
Weekly charts
  • Yes, Billboard 200 first, but then following ones should be listed alphabetically.
Year-end charts
  • Two separate tables, not one glued together.
Singles

The year column needs to be shaded grey like the other tables

References
  • Look pretty good to me! All correctly formatted and presented.
Status

Overall it's quite well written and balanced. On hold for 7 days but you shouldn't need that long.  — Calvin999 17:06, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
