Versace1608, I'll review this. dxneo (talk) 00:55, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Quick facts/infobox

Information on the infobox must reflect cited information in the body of the article; Producer and Label. dxneo (talk) 01:45, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Background

Producer Bigfoot, who previously oversaw the production of Brymo's Harmattan & Winter and Libel projects, single-handedly mixed, mastered, and produced all of the album's tracks. ===> Record producer, Bigfootinyourface, who previously oversaw the production of Brymo's debut extended play (EP) Libel and ninth studio album 9: Harmattan & Winter (2021), single-handedly mixed, mastered, and produced all of the album's tracks. dxneo (talk) 01:45, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I would also advice to add that the album is a no feature project, from this source. dxneo (talk) 01:45, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Music and lyrics

All of the album's songs feature rhythmic percussion ===> All of the songs on the album feature rhythmic percussion

Tracks 6–10

"Oga" depicts a male character who has sexually assaulted a woman and is on the verge of meeting his waterloo; ===> "Oga" depicts a male character who sexually assaulted a woman and is on the verge of meeting his defeat;
- I like how you move slightly to avoid copyright vio. However, informal words such as "waterloo" gives it away. Please be careful when paraphrasing.

The ballad "For You" ends the album's sonic journey and folksy narrative ===> The ballad, "For You", ends the album's sonic journey and folksy narrative. dxneo (talk) 02:23, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Critical reception

I don't think pointing out the review scores on the prose is the way to go. There's already a table above illustrating the scores. dxneo (talk) 02:29, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Track listing

Bigfoot ===> Bigfootinyourface

Release history

Independent ===> Self-released/self-published. dxneo (talk) 02:32, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

2. Verifiable with no original research

Not too much sources to go through. Looks fine, and the information in the sources matches with information in the article. Earwig finds copyright violations unlikely, with a 37.9% similarity to a Pulse source, which were mostly quotes. Sources look good. dxneo (talk) 02:43, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

3. Broad in its coverage

4. Neutral

5. Stable

The article has not gone into any content disputes or heavy editing as it was mostly improved by one editor and recently by Guild of Copy Editors. dxneo (talk) 02:53, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

6. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?

No media files found whatsoever. I would advice that if no appropriate images can be found, at least do add audio samples on Music and lyrics. They would help in improving the article's quality. dxneo (talk) 03:13, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Verdict

Patiently waiting on Versace1608 to attend to the above mentioned requests before we can move on. dxneo (talk) 03:07, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Conclusion

Withdrawn, and failed per this discussion. dxneo (talk) 07:33, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
