  • Add link to music videos
  • Remove italics on FutureSex/LoveShow.
  • A Billboard writer said that Hilson "taps into her vulnerable side" on tracks like "'Slow Dance,' co-written by Justin Timberlake, and the ballad 'Make Love.' Why is 'Slow Dance,' co-written by Justin Timberlake, and the ballad 'Make Love.' in quote style? The sentence needs cleaning up.
  • Remove italics on PopMatters, since it is solely an online publication.
  • Jon Caramanica of The New York Times called the song "excellent." This sounds a bit bland and doesn't deserve its own sentence, if maintained this short. The sentence should be expanded.
 Done, expanded on what reviewer said.
  • Calling the album's slow numbers a problem what are slow numbers? Also, why were they a problem?
Slow numbers in this sense means down-tempo songs a.k.a numbers, and the reviewer did not say why they were a problem.
A site that interviewed Hilson.
  • The clip flips back to what happened earlier that night Clip flip? I think [[Flashback (narrative)] would read better
  • Once she arrives to the club, she is attracted to a particular guy Guy? Poor english
 Done
  • "But for the doubters, she proves it once again with this seductive new video from In A Perfect World." This is a bit off-topic.
It is a positive review for the clip, the reviewer said that Hilson proved her doubters wrong in the seductive video. This reception for the video.
  • Rap-Up said that Hilson, Remove the comma
  • "takes it nice and slow in the video for “Slow Dance." Clean up to "takes it nice and slow in the video for 'Slow Dance.' "
 Done
  • The video ranked at number eighty on BET: Notarized Top 100 Videos of 2009 countdown. Generally speaking, numbers above}} As a general rule, in the body of an article, single-digit whole numbers from zero to nine are spelled out in words; numbers greater than nine are commonly rendered in numerals.
 Done
  • Aside from performing it at the 2007 Zone 4 launch Should launch be capitalized.
No, because launch is just a noun meaning " to start on a course" and Zone 4 is the subject.
  • Mp3shopcart.com is not a reliable source. My suggestion is that if you cannot find a reference for the track listing, then you can simply remove the Track listing section and replace {{Infobox Single}} with {{Infobox Song}}. That simple.
Removed, but per consensus at WP:SONGS, in the US, a song which is sent to airplay is considered a single as they cannot be re-released for digital download after an album is released and CD singles are extinct in the US.
  • I'm not sure, but Aside from performing it at the 2007 Zone 4 launch, Hilson performed the song on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon on September 17, 2009 alongside The Roots. doesn't read right to me and may need rewriting.
I believe a comma between 2009 and alongside would fix it, then it reads fine.
  • Surly there is more personnel than presented.
This is the personnel for the song per the album's liner notes.
  • The Source[19] underneath the Personnel section goes against MOS. If you find it necessary to include a reference, add it after the every line.
Where in MoS is against this? I used the personnel section in the featured article, 4 Minutes (Madonna song) as an example, and it is in this format.
See WP:WAX for why that is not a valid argument. But either way, it's really no reason to fail the article. CrowzRSA 17:03, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • The Release history section really has no potential, it should be merged to the Composition and critical reception (between the break between composition and critical reception).
I moved it, but to background?
Fixed
