Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 11:41, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox and lead

The "short description" should be above everything else per WP:ORDER.
I would put WAAF (and maybe K-Love) in bold since they're other names for the station.

History

Serial commas after "marketing, promotion", Van Halen, WRKO, and "Joe Calgaro, Mistress Carrie".
Commas after "November 26, 1988", "November 17, 1997", and "August 12, 2009" per WP:DATECOMMA.
Some block quotes are missing sources.
"and son Lee Zapis" → "and his son Lee Zapis"
Remove the comma after "core artists".
"Mittman in particular praised" → "Mittman, in particular, praised"
The last sentence in #Alternative_and_"raunchy"_lean needs a source.
For both uses, "cancelled" → "canceled" (American English for American station).
Should "compliant" be "complaint"? They mean very different things.
"hosted on an" → "hosted an"
The first paragraph in #Signal_adjustments needs more sources.
"cancelling" → "canceling" (see above)

Current programming

No issues here.

References

Sources are archived.
Don't use WP:ALLCAPS for #125.
Add the "use mdy dates" template to fix references.
Mark sources from The New York Times with "|url-access=limited".

Progress

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
It is reasonably well written. a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists): It is factually accurate and verifiable. a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism): It is broad in its coverage. a (major aspects): b (focused): It follows the neutral point of view policy. Fair representation without bias: It is stable. No edit wars, etc.: It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate. a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall: Pass/Fail:

Thanks, Some Dude From North Carolina. I've tackled the vast majority of the issues raised with the sole exception of the last sentence in "Alternative and raunchy lean", a rare example of the type of connective sentence bridging sections together that has no citations of its own (it's a sentence backed up by the entire next section, essentially, and it's needed to provide the logical link).

@Sammi Brie: Fair enough; passing the article. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 21:46, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
