Did You Know
A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on June 25, 2011.
The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that the soundtrack to the action thriller film Speed 2: Cruise Control (1997) features mostly reggae music?

B-Class rating

[edit]

Looking at the page history, an external reviewer found the article had a problem with item 6 on the B-class criteria: "The article presents its content in an appropriately understandable way." I do not see any problem with excess use of technical terms in this article, but breaking up some of the long paragraphs to create more white space and clearer logical structure would help with readability.

Ok, thanks for clearing that up. I just hate when users who have never edited the article drop by and reassess it without any explanation. –Dream out loud (talk) 16:49, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

New article title

[edit]

I'm moving the article since this soundtrack album has no "official title". The cover of the album reads "Original Motion Picture Soundtrack" while the album disc and spine read "Music from the Motion Picture Soundtrack". The cover and discs for the "Make Tonight Beautiful" and "Tell Me Is It True Singles" note that the song is from "the motion picture soundtrack album Speed 2: Cruise Control"[1] and "the motion picture soundtrack to Speed 2: Cruise Control"[2] implying that the soundtrack's name is basically the same as the movie. So renaming the article as such would make the most sense. –Dream out loud (talk) 05:37, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Checklist

[edit]

On first pass, this appears solid and ripe for promotion. I appreciate all your work on it. I made a few copyedits as I went, so please doublecheck that I haven't inadvertently introduced any errors. I'll do some last checks for the checklist, and if all's good there, I'll be promoting this one in just a moment. -- Khazar2 (talk) 18:24, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

1. Well-written:
1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct. Prose is good. Many sources are behind subscription paywalls and thus not immediately accessible, but those that are free to check show no copyright issues.
1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.
2. Verifiable with no original research:
2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.
2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).
2c. it contains no original research.
3. Broad in its coverage:
3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.
6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
7. Overall assessment. Pass
