Opening assessment
[edit]This article currently does not meet the requirements for a good article. At present, it at least fails
- 1a: Well written: the prose is clear and the spelling and grammar are correct
- 2a: it provides references to all sources of information
- 2b: at minimum, it provides in-line citations from reliable sources for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons.
Large blocks of content have been added with little or no citations to support listings of song chart performance, concert attendance and dates, and awards and gold/platinum records, little consistency in style and other issues. The new content consistently refers to her as "Tina", rather than "Tina Turner" or "Turner" as proscribed by guidelines. There are too many errors in linking, the use of quote marks vs. italics, and punctuation to enumerate. The prose is badly in need of copy editing, grammar clean up and POV removal. It simply needs a great deal of attention. I made an attempt to clean part of this up, but frankly, it was overwhelming. Wildhartlivie (talk) 07:08, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
